Yes, headers/footers, paragraph indentation, margins, underline/bold/outline/
shadow/italic/superscript/subscript.  Columns only in page layout.  No auto-
matic footnotes.  Page numbering, but no section numbering.  The word 
processor is paragraph based (wrt rulers), similar to Write Now's paragraphing.

Entirely dependant on memory.  The more onboard memory, the bigger the document.
I don't know offhand the basic memory requirement, but it's pretty much targeted
at a 1 Meg machine.

GS Works uses Apple's printer drivers, so you get the quality that they can
provide, which is generally the same as the Macintosh.
