And depending on the window manager and theme (mostly an issue in KDE) the
windows don't remember their positions properly.

converting text to path requires TextFX which is in the Pro version. I've used
it on linux and found it to be working. I just did it and when I switched to
the point editor tool the curve points were all available for editing.
The Amiga version didn't convert fonts to curves in the postscript (that would
be TextFX again). I've edited the text in the postscript output before and
can assure you that the text frames were text.
I seem to remember the EPS in PDF output being a known problem, but I'd have
to look to be sure. I rarely use EPS these days (just the nature of what I'm
doing) so I haven't encountered it.
