 >      It means that you can load and edit any LaTeX 2e document.
 >
 >   BaKoMa TeX Word is built on top of BaKoMa TeX graphic engine and
 >   consequently it inherits all features of BaKoMa TeX related
 >   with import graphics, font support, and document export.

 >      Other processors such as Omega may be added in future.
