I am not familiar with Outline Pro, but will give it a look, if only for the sake of CRIMP research. ;) The other thing that I forgot to mention, if I am remembering correctly, is that Carbonfin uses OPML, and its files can be read by Bonsai. I have not done so, as the web version suffices for my needs, but it is a nice option.

I wasn’t recommending Outline Pro (I’ve never tried it). I just included the link because they are comparing themselves with CarbonFin on there (among others).

Yes, I use that feature regularly.

I did understand that it was not a recommendation from you, but Steve mentioned it in his original post, and it seemed worthy of a bit of research.

Ken.
Outliner Pro also exports to OPML and Text and PDF. In case, you haven’t seen.

My two cents: I use a few mind mapping apps (including iThoughtsHD) and I export my mind maps as OPML files into Outline Pro. Then, I use Outline Pro’s “Open In…” feature to send my outlines to Pages. This workflow works real nice for me, though you’re using 3 apps to do it.
