Well, good luck there... Not saying it can't be done, it obviously can, but how usable would it be? The closest I curently get to anything like that is editing wordpress articles or Google docs - and the editor they use it grossly slow on my workstation - all in Javascript and trying to do far too much.I thought I'd ask anyway, I'm trying to talk them out of going down the MS path anyway, it seems that if you sign up for a complete Microsoft package (Windows Server, Exchange, Office, Windows 7) then you can get a better price but they'd end up spending more on software they don't need.Actually google docs isn't too bad and ca nexport to PDF - but limited to the fonts the browser has.
