Volunteers, not Amateurs

But our products are developed entirely by volunteers.

Some users are initially worried by this statement: How can software for free, developed by volunteers, be any good? Read on for an answer...

9 Best Free Microsoft Office/365 Alternatives

You won't even miss having the real thing

• Emporia State University

There are several free Microsoft 365 (formerly Microsoft Office) alternatives that contain similar versions of Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Access.

Many of the suites listed below open, edit, and create Office documents. Although they don't have all the cool Office features, many get close.

If you want a free and convenient alternative to Microsoft Word only, there are a number of free downloadable word processors and free online word processors . There are also free spreadsheet programs and free presentation software apps.

Want to give the real Microsoft Office applications a try? Check out the one-month free trial for Microsoft 365 , which is a cloud-based subscription service that offers the same apps as the most recent version of Office, but with additional tools and benefits.

LibreOffice

Robust word processor for documents, books, diagrams, and indexes.

Fully compatible with DOCX files.

Easy to create forms.

Must install the entire suite of apps (can't pick just Writer, for example).

No real-time collaboration feature.

LibreOffice is a replacement for Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, Excel, and Access for Windows, Mac, and Linux computers, while adding a few extra features.

Six separate programs are included that make up the suite: Writer (word processing), Impress (presentations), Calc (spreadsheets), Base (databases), Math (formula editing), and Draw (vector graphics and flowcharts). You can install it on your computer or use the portable version.

You can open files from your computer or remote locations like Google Drive, OneDrive, or an FTP server.

Each of the MS Office alternatives can open, edit, and save to formats that are compatible with versions of Office back through 2007.

No learning curve for those familiar with Word.

Software looks and feels familiar.

Mature product, in development for 20+ years.

No online collaboration.

Different default file format than MS Office.

OpenOffice has a word processor, database, spreadsheet, and presentation program that can all act as Microsoft application alternatives. Writer (word processing), Calc (spreadsheets), Base (databases), and Impress (presentations) are the free alternatives offered by OpenOffice that can be used in full at absolutely no cost. The suite also includes Draw and Math.

Many popular file formats can be opened with OpenOffice, such as DOC, DOCX, XML, XLS, XLW, DBF, PPT, PPS, and POTX .

During installation, selectively decide to install some or all of the OpenOffice programs to avoid adding a program you won't use.

Windows 10, 8, 7, Vista, and XP are supported as well as Linux and Mac operating systems. There's also a portable version of OpenOffice so you don't have to install anything.

Compatible with Microsoft file formats.

Open multiple document tabs.

Eye Protection mode and Night mode.

Annual fee to suppress ads.

Advanced features require a paid version.

No real-time co-authoring.

WPS Office, formerly Kingsoft Office, installs three programs that work as alternatives: Writer, Presentation, and Spreadsheets.

Writer is a replacement for Word. It opens common file formats such as WPS, DOC, and DOCX, as well as Microsoft Word template files such as DOT and DOTM. The PowerPoint alternative, Presentation, opens and saves files in formats that can be used in Office or with the free WPS Office; file types such as PPT and PPS are supported. The Excel alternative is called Spreadsheets and works with Excel 2010+ files such as XLSX and XLSM; functions like SUM, COUNT, SUMIF, and AVERAGE are supported when building formulas.

WPS Office supports Windows, Mac, Android, Linux, and iOS operating systems. There are also Android and iOS versions.

Google Drive

Lots of free cloud storage space.

Excellent collaboration capabilities.

Can't password protect shared files.

Not as sophisticated as Microsoft 365/Office.

Google Drive is a free storage service offered by Google that also creates online documents without downloading any software, making it a perfect replacement. Log in with your Google account to create documents, presentations, and spreadsheets to replace MS Word, PowerPoint, and Excel.

Files created with Google Drive are automatically saved to your Google account, accessible from any browser at any time, and can be shared with anyone, even if they're not a Google user. Google Drive also supports simultaneous collaboration with other users in real-time and allows add-ons to be used to extend functionality.

Existing Microsoft documents, such as DOCX and XLSX files, can be opened from your browser and then converted to a Google Drive format for easy editing and sharing.

Excellent collaboration features with built-in chat.

Advanced analytics tracks edits to files.

Secure encryption and two-factor authentication.

Sync with your devices through the offline program.

Sometimes slower than other online office suites.

Zoho Docs is another online office suite that includes a presentation maker, word processor, and spreadsheet program, much like Microsoft 365.

Upload several popular file types to Zoho Docs from your computer or Google Drive as well as create new ones online. There's a huge file size limit of 1 GB for uploads, and downloads can be saved in Microsoft's newer formats, like XLSX.

Once your files are stored in your account, you can edit them, share them with others, and download them. All the common text formatting tools are included and files are saved automatically as you work.

ONLYOFFICE Personal

Compatible with Microsoft formats.

Sharing and collaboration features.

Personal version is free.

Not as robust as the paid version or its competitors.

Similar to other options, ONLYOFFICE Personal is a suite of online programs, which means you can use them from any web browser without downloading a single program. Log in to with your Google account or make a new one, and create documents, spreadsheets, and presentations.

Files can be uploaded from your computer as well as a few cloud storage services, such as Dropbox , Yandex Disk, OneDrive, etc.

Also supported in this free MS Office-like program is co-editing, chat, spell check, and sharing with anyone, even if they aren't logged into their ONLYOFFICE account.

SoftMaker FreeOffice

Free for home and business use.

Saves documents in Microsoft file formats.

Choice of ribbons or classic menu and toolbars.

Optimized for touch screens.

No cloud support.

No thesaurus or U.S. English dictionary.

SoftMaker FreeOffice is an Office alternative for Windows, Mac, and Linux computers. PlanMaker (spreadsheets), Presentations (presentations), and TextMaker (word processing) are included, all of which can open and save files in several popular formats.

All three portions of SoftMaker FreeOffice work with the file types supported in the newest version of Microsoft's apps, as well as older ones. There's also auto-save, background/automatic spell check, and lots of options you can customize to your liking.

SSuite Office

Small downloads for full-featured apps.

Fast startup.

Loads many apps that may never be needed.

The user interface is hard to follow.

SSuite Office has several MS Office alternatives, each with a different set of features and each free to use. The primary version, called Excalibur, includes a word processor and a spreadsheet tool.

Instead of downloading an entire free alternative suite, you can get just the word processor, for example, or just the spreadsheet program.

There's also a portable version on the download page called Blade Runner. A handful of web apps are available as well, including one for WordGraph Editor, but it's nothing near as comprehensive as other online Word alternatives.

1n 1968, IBM first used the term word processing. The term described machines that could be used to type a document, remember the typist’s keystrokes, and produce more than on copy. With this new tool, workers saved time. Introduction

Word-processing programs are used for creating and printing text documents. These programs have four functions: • Writing – entering text and symbols into a document • Editing – revising or reorganizing the text • Formatting – changing how the text looks on the page • Printing – producing a printed copy See the next three slides Functions of Word Processing-Program

Writing Editing

Word-processing programs can be used to create almost any kind of printed document, such as letters, reports, and brochures. They can also be used to created calendars, return address labels, and labels for homemade CDs. Word process application is the most used by people than any other application. Use of Word Processing

When you open a word-processing program, a new blank document is created. It looks like a blank piece of paper on the screen. In Word 2010, you can create another document at any time by clicking the File tab, clicking the New command, selecting Blank Document, and clicking the Create button. Working with a Word-Processing Document

In Windows OS, most word-processing programs allows you to create a new document by pressing Ctrl+N (hold the Ctrl key and press N). In Mac OS, this similarly done by pressing Command+N. Every time you create a new document you need to save it. Click the Save button on the Quick Access toolbar. When the Save As dialog box opens, name your document. Working with a Word-Processing Document

Insertion Point – shows where the text you type will appear. It moves as you type. Scrolling – As you write, you might want to reread or change something you wrote earlier. That is made easy by scrolling using the mouse or keyboard to move through the document. See the next slide Working with a Word-Processing Document

Save Button Click the File tab to begin creating a new document. Scroll bar Insertion Point Document area

Most word-processing programs have these features to help you write, edit and save your work. • With word wrap, the program automatically starts a new line, or “wraps” the text , when the current line is full. • When a page is full, the pagination feature automatically starts a new page. You can also force a new page by inserting a special character, called a page break. Basic Features

The AutoCorrect feature fixes common spelling mistakes as they are typed. You can turn off this feature or modify it to accept unusual words that you often use. • The AutoRecover or autosave feature protects you from losing work. It does so by automatically saving a document as often as you want. If the computer shuts down accidentally, you can retrieve the most recently saved version. Basic Features (Continued)

Text wraps automatically at the right margin. Page Break Page Break

As you write, keep in mind three standards of style to make your work look professional. • Two Standards are met automatically by many programs. They change two hyphens (--) to an em dash (-). They also convert quotation marks to curly quotation marks, or “smart quotes.” • One standard is not automatic – you have to remember to do it. This standard is to type one space, not two, between sentences. Typing Standards for Word-Processing Documents

Opening a Document for Editing Editing can take pace at any time after you have created the document. You can go back and edit text you recently entered., or you can edit a document you created , saved, and closed. You can use a word-processing program’s Open Command to open file, or you can use your operating system’s file management features to find files on a disk (hard drive). In Windows, file names have extensions, such as .txt, .rtf, docx (Windows 2010), or .wpd, although these extensions may be hidden form view. Editing a Document

Selecting Text Usually, people edit more than one character at a time. The select text feature lets you highlight anything from a word to a whole document. Then you can delete it, move it, copy it, or change its formatting. To select text, simply click and drag the mouse over the text you want. Most programs also let you select text by using the keyboard. You hold down the shift key while you use the arrow keys and other keys to select the text. Selected text is highlighted on the screen; that is, it appears with a different background color. Editing a Document

Two common reasons for selecting text are cutting and copying. Both actions place the text in the Clipboard. The Clipboard stores cut or copied text while you work. Once you close the program or shut down the computer, items on the Clipboard are no longer available. • The Cut command removes the selected text from a document and places it on the Clipboard. • The Copy command places a duplicate of the selected text on the Clipboard. Cutting, Copying and Pasting

Pasting command is use to insert an item copied or cut to the Clipboard. Simply place the insertion point where you want the item to appear. Then, click the Paste icon on the Clipboard group of the Home tab or press Ctrl+V. The copied item or text appears where you want it. Cutting, Copying and Pasting Cut Paste Copy Commands in the Home tab, Clipboard group

Using Cut and Paste – Moving a sentence from the middle of a paragraph to the beginning can be done by selecting and dragging it. You can use Cut and Paste to move that sentence farther – for example, to another page – or to move text or a graphic from one document to another. You can even open a new window, paste the text you cut from another document, and save the pasted text as a new document. Cutting, Copying and Pasting

Using Copy and Paste – Copying and pasting saves time when you need to repeat some text. You can also copy and paste to bring a graphic from one document into another. Undoing and Redoing – Word-processing programs have commands that can undo or cancel and edit. If you delete a word by mistake, you can use the Undo command to put it back. Many programs also have a Redo command. You can use this feature to put a change back in effect after canceling it with Undo. Cutting, Copying and Pasting

Merging – Most word-processing programs have a mail merge feature you can use to generate customized form letters, mailing labels, envelopes, and even e-mails. You create a word-processing document that includes the content you want everyone to receive and then merge it with a data source of customized information, such as names and addresses. Cutting, Copying and Pasting

Appearance is Important A document’s formatting – its appearance – is sometimes as important as its contents. This is why word-processing programs have so many tools to format documents. Word-processing programs include many preset formats, called defaults. The program applies these formats automatically, unless you change them. Formatting a Document

Formatting Characters Character formatting lets you change the look of letters. Three primary formats are applied to Characters: • The font is the family used. • Font size is the height of characters, measure in points. One point equals 1/172 inch. • Font styles are characteristics such as boldface and italic. Formatting a Document

Formatting Characters There are four general categories of fonts. Serif fonts, such as Times New Roman, have serifs, or lines projecting from the ends. They are easy to read and are often used for document text. San Serif fonts, such as Arial, do not have serifs, and are often used for headings. Script fonts are used to simulate hand-writting. Decorative fonts have embellishments such as a curlicues Formatting a Document

Formatting Paragraph A paragraph is any text that ends with the press of the “Enter Key”. Whenever you press Enter, you create a paragraph. You can change many paragraph formats, including: • Alignment – This is the way a paragraph lines ups between the page’s left and right margins Formatting a Document

Formatting Paragraph • Line spacing – This is the amount of space between the lines of the text in a paragraph • Indentation – This is added space between a margin and the text. • Tabs – These are stops placed along a line. Pressing the Tab key moves the insertion point to the next stop. Tabs can be used to align text in tables or columns. Formatting a Document

Formatting Pages Page formatting affects how and where text is positioned on the page. The main features in page formatting are: • Orientation – Text can be printed in one or two directions, or orientations. In portrait orientation, text is printed down the page’s long edge, creating a page that is taller than it is wide. Formatting Sections

Formatting Pages • Orientation – In landscape orientation, text is printed down the page’s short edge, creating a page that is wider that it is tall. • Headers and footers – This is special information placed at the top of the page – headers – or at the bottom – footers. These placeholders can show page numbers, the date, or the document’s title. Formatting Sections

Publishing from a Desktop Desktop-publishing (DTP) programs are used to create high-quality publications that look as if they were produced on a printing press. They can be used to do some of the same tasks as word-processing programs, but they greatly expand design options so you can create high-quality documents. Basics of Desktop Publishing
