Not true, sorry. I hate to jump in on this issue, and I'm not really. :-)
Only that you can open a copy of a Newton book in an older version of
Microsoft Word on the Mac (I've done it in 5.0) and use the search/replace
to remove all the unicode "squares" between the letters, and then delete the
rest of the binary data, leaving the text behind. :-) Of course, it's not
likely that somebody is going to think of this, but it is possible...
