Although Mathematica 7 is a very powerful peace of software as far as the computational part goes it turns out to be quite limited and unstable when it comes to word editing and processing, despite the claims in the help that it is almost as powerful as WinWord. For example it crashed multiple times on me while I was trying to setup the right fonts and sizes, as a result I lost all my work several times, it also messed up my fonts, sizes, styles, settings for the equations, its undo is totally useless and I couldn't figure out how to format a text and a graphic in two or more columns and display them side by side in a notebook as well as how to control what goes on what page and while printing to PDF often it wouldn't print all pages, but just the first 2-3. All that said I'm wondering what program to use to write my work in, and I'm asking for advice - is WinWord any better when it comes to handling equations? Any other choices? What is the best way to export Mathematica 7 equations and graphics?
