Assemble Dissertation in Mellel

[Nathan Parker]

I’ll definitely be assembling my dissertation in Mellel. I tried using Word even using the school’s template, and it was a massive headache just a few pages in. I already have most of the front matter done in Mellel. I’m only experiencing one formatting issue I’ll either need to correct or resolve post-production, whereas with Word I had nothing but headaches right off the start.

 

The amount of time I invest in refreshing myself in Mellel and assembling in Mellel would still be less and pay off actual results than the amount of time I’d spend getting frustrated with Word.

Dissertation assembly is going well in Mellel. I’ve only had a couple minor questions/issues surface. Mellel support has been great, plus I now have access to their forums if I need it.

 

The more I use Mellel to assemble my dissertation, the more I’m glad I’m using it over Word. Even with the learning/tweaks I need to make along the way, I can still assemble it in a fraction of the time I could in Word. @R. Mansfield has convinced me on just how solid this app is.
