Editor's review of AbiWord 0.7.0

  • 4.0 stars

  • "Word up, price down"
This free, open-source word-processor strikes us as a worthy alternative to pricey, big-name products. AbiWord's interface is very similar to programs such as Word and WordPerfect, so the learning curve is quick. You'll find just about all the customary features you'd expect, including cut-and-paste, highlighting, and a bevy of common formatting tools. Although we did miss a grammar-checking utility, the program can check your spelling in many languages, though you'll need to choose the appropriate foreign language dictionaries during installation. A huge point in the program's favor is it can open and save Microsoft Word documents, though it also has its own proprietary file format. AbiWord should appeal to a wide range of users who seek a functional word-processing app, but lack a large bank account.
