NeoOffice Writer is a powerful opensource word processor able to handle everything from simple school reports to the more complicated needs of businesses. With its built-in Microsoft Office filters, NeoWriter can open, edit, and save your Word documents.
Writer is integrated into NeoOffice. This allows easy incorporation of spreadsheets from NeoCalc or drawings from NeoDraw in your NeoWriter documents.
As with the other components of NeoOffice, Writer supports writing in a wide range of languages and scripts, including support for right-to-left writing direction and other complex text layout systems.
The wiki includes a NeoOffice Feature Comparison with Microsoft Word and OpenOffice.org and a list of supported file formats.
