"White paper background" gets extended; doesn't look nice. Allows to attach notes to a text selection. Allows spell checking in comments. Round corners.

Has at least some rich text editing capabilities. Author/Date above the text, closer looks disturbing. Notes can also be attached to pictures. Notes have a "sidebar" like common background in light gray; darker than the document and lighter than the typical window background. This reduces the contrast and mediates between the different areas.
