Right.
But this has been John's standard reply for many long years
Although I am most grateful that John is taking part in our "bloody
users' '" discussions (the only one from the developers team to react
on what is appearing here <!!!>), I must rate this as a verrrrrrrry poor
excuse for one of the biggest shortcomings of ON.
IMO it would have been necessary to create a simple "Reader" years ago.
I absolutely can not understand why the aspect of making OneNote
available for everyone has that seriously been neglected all over the
years. {siiiigh}
There are Viewers for any other Office applications.
And there is NIL for the most innovative part of Office!

Grrrrrreat!!! <bg,d&rvf>
Why not:
- XPS export;
- screenshot;
- WebExporter Powertoy;
- Copy & Paste to one of the following: (a) Notepad, (b) WordPad,
(c)_Word, etc., etc., etc. ???
The one as ridiculous as the other!

P.S. IMHO even far more serious than the lack of a "Viewer" is the lack
of an "iFilter" and by this a *PREVIEW* in the Explorer (and therefore
in the results pane of a Search).
Almost each and any type of file presented by a search with WDS (in the
Explorer) can be viewed in the "Preview Pane".
If something of/from OneNote is found (and this most often is the case
<!>), no chance to see what has been found.
Terrible, just terrible.
This IMO is the most serious omission in the development of ON.
For me: *INCREDIBLE*
