Word processor

TheCatWoman

Can anyone recomend me a good word processor, I'm ready to start wrting the first chapter of my book and I don't seem to have a word processor program, I've not used one for about 15 years and that was on windows XP, I just about coped with that one and would like something similar and easy to use.

Sorry I know its hard recomending tech to me as most of it just goes over my head, but any contributions would be gratefully recieved

  • This will really depend on your device & operating system.

    The good news is, whichever one you are using doesn’t really matter - they all have the same basic functionality and features, which should easily meet your requirements.

    If you’re running Microsoft Windows, then you will have a basic word processor (Wordpad) installed as part of the operating system, which should be able to do everything you need (just type Wordpad in the search bar, or look in the start menu apps). You may have MS Word installed too - although this is usually an ‘extra’ bundled with MS office.

    If you’re on a Mac, the default word processor is called ‘Pages’.

    Whichever device /OS you are using, you can use google docs (online), which is platform independent, meaning you can access anywhere you have an internet connection and on any device.

    Hopefully this makes sense & you can locate an app on your device that works for you.
