Pageless mode needed to modernise Writer

Pageless mode needed to modernise Writer

When we switched from GSuite to Zoho, one of the easiest apps I found to give up, was Docs. In many ways, Writer has always been more powerful than Docs, especially in terms of workflows/fillable forms/etc.

However, I went back into Docs because I notice they have added a bunch of functionality since I left, and suddenly I feel like I'm missing out.

The main thing with Writer is there is no pageless mode. I have to pick a document size, even though literally none of the word I do is ever going to be printed out.

GDocs has long had pageless mode, and it was always my default choice, but having pageless model is now critical because of the way modern document tools work. You don't just type words - you bring in data. So now GDocs essentially lets you create the same kinds of documents that you can in Notion, Coda, Clickup Docs, etc.

Right now, Writer is stuck in the nineties. The first thing is to allow us to have a pageless mode. Then we  can start having image headers and the like, all of which you want on digital-first documents. The fact that I can easily create a Cover Page and not a Cover Image, shows how much the product is still built for the era of creating documents to print.

And then let us integrate all of our Zoho data. If I could effortlessly embed a Zoho Sheet or Zoho Table; a Gannt Chart from Projects, a customer record from CRM, etc, etc. it would make the Zoho ecosystem so much more accessible because I think the popularity of Notion and the direction GDocs is now going, makes it pretty clear that a lot of people are comfortable working out of documents.
