I have many issues with Microsoft Word. Here are my issues:
Figure numbering doesn't work. It loses track of numbers and the update field function is inconsistent. If you have more than 15 figures in a document, there is a 100 percent chance you'll be doing figure numbers by hand.
Captions can't stay attached to pictures. They fly all over. You need to group the picture to the caption. Sometimes, captions get stuck behind text and can't be deleted. In fact, you can't even edit them.
Pictures fly all over documents - often getting stuck at the top or bottom of a page. I have figured out how to get this to stop, but the other issues remain.
The figure and caption issues have existed since at least Office XP/Office 2004 for the Mac and perhaps before then.
In Word 2008 for the Mac and Windows, there is a serious bug that causes spaces to disappear between words after you save a document. Once you send the document to another person, apparent spelling mistakes appear. We use the Calibri font frequently, and that seems to be the most common font in use when this problem occurs. It's very embarrassing when you send "final" versions of documents to clients. The bug occurs in documents that are saved both in OpenXML and .doc formats.
