LibreOffice Writer

Writer is the word processor inside LibreOffice productivity suite. Use it for everything, from dashing off a quick letter to producing an entire book with tables of contents, embedded illustrations, bibliographies and diagrams. The while-you-type auto-completion, auto-formatting and automatic spell-checking make difficult tasks easy (but are easy to disable if you prefer). Writer is powerful enough to tackle desktop publishing tasks such as creating multi-column newsletters and brochures. The only limit is your imagination.

Based on the what-you-see-is-what-you-get principle, Writer allows you to apply various styles and formatting effects to your document and view the results immediately.

LibreOffice supports opening and saving into a wide variety of formats, so you can easily share documents with users of other popular office suites without worrying about compatibility.
