is thare any other program like microsoft word processor?

Question

thanks for openoffice.org

Answer 1

Open Office

http://www.openoffice.org

Answer 2

The only one I can think of is the word processor in Microsoft Works which usually comes standard with Windows Home Edition versions. It works almost exactly like Microsoft Word, except it is not compatible with MS Word. For instance if you type a document in MS Works and try to open it in MS Word it will look like gibberish. In other words if you have MS Works at home and save a document on disk, then go to work and try to open it in MS Office it will not come up correctly. The file names are different, I think MS Office is a .doc file and MS Works uses a .wps file.
Corel also has a good word processing program called Word Perfect. You might be able to get a free trail at www.corel.com
I am in college and have the Student Version of Microsoft Office which contacts the MS Word program. It works just as well as the regular version and is a bit cheaper than the full version of Microsoft Office.

Answer 3

Sure, try the free AbiWord (http://www.filehippo.com/download_abiword/). AbidWord is a Microsoft Word clone. It is virtually identical to Word expect it lacks some advanced functions. However, the vast majority of people never use them anyway. OpenOffice is a good choice too but it is an entire office suite like Microsoft Office, with a word process, spreadsheet, presentation and database component. If you just want a word processor then AbiWord is fine.

Answer 4

Of course.
There is Wordperfect by Corell and then there is Lotus Word Pro by IBM.

The problem is that Ms Word is so established, and it is not always possible for 100% conversion between the programs.

Since the conversion process is imperfect, with the preponderance of Ms Word the others lose out. It's as simple as that in my opinion.

But they are cheaper and have lots of things to offer.

Answer 5

Sun Microsystems has StarOffice, and is a free download from Sun.com

Answer 6

I sometimes use one called Jarte...It works well on somethings, although the look is rather childish looking.
