Best Free Word Processor [1]

Last updated by Jojo Yee [2] on 25. November 2020 - 11:59

Introduction

If you don't have a lot of space on your hard disk, or you simply wish to create word processing documents without installing an entire office suite then you've come to the right place. This review contains a list of free word processors, that load in a jiffy, with capabilities near those of an office suite word processor.

The review looks into the essential features like font formatting, paragraph formatting, file saving to .txt, .rft or .doc formats that are usually needed in a word processor. It also focuses on what makes the program unique as freeware often tends to put a special twist on the normal run of software. Online word processors are generally excluded from this category while older or discontinued applications maybe removed from the list.
