A study cited by Conspectus, Inc., indicates that nearly all specifiers (99%) use Microsoft Word as their word processor, and many utilize its features like styles and templates for formatting specifications. However, as an architect, it is time to reconsider relying solely on a generic word processor for critical documents like specifications.
