      I don’t have a copy of Word handy, but I don’t think it is nearly as detailed. Wordperfect would show you all the formatting, but also marks for tables of contents and indexes, columns, images and other inserts, etc.

        Correct. Word’s was page and whitespace only, Wordperfect was nearer to markup, like HTML/XML, you could see bold, italic, font size changes, etc.
