Incidentally, at least on my copy of ChemDraw 12 Ultra, the version number is still reported as 12.0, but Get Info on the application package reveals that the version is now 12.0.767 against 12.0.737 in the original release.Īs I said in my previous post, I won't be holding my breath for a solution - it has taken two months to get to here and the *major* issues are still issues. The Word 2004 problem is not even acknowledged as a problem by Cambridgesoft and is particularly annoying since their solution to the round trip editing issue is to 'downgrade' from Word 2008 to Word 2004. However, the Keynote/Pages pasting issue will snooker everyone who writes or lectures about Chemistry for a living (like me). It's disappointing that a company with the resources of Cambridgesoft cannot address these issues in a more timely manner. If it contains only drawing and NO text, it will look and print like crap but still be round-trip editable. The software lies within Education Tools, more precisely Science Tools. Basically, if a drawing contains structure and ANY text, it will display and print correctly and be round-trip editable. ChemDraw Pro 12.0 is available as a free download on our software library.

* ChemDraw 12 and Word 2004 don't get along particularly well either. * pasting ChemDraw pictures into Pages/Keynote is totally hosed. * dialogue boxes became disabled so she could not change any settings (for example, under Object Settings)

* if you double click a ChemDraw document, the application will open, but the document will not. OK, so I downloaded the update and installed it.
