Microsoft Word 2010

Word 2010 - the world-famous word processing program

Microsoft's Office programs have been used all over the world for decades and have long been pre-installed as standard on computers and notebooks with Windows as the operating system. Microsoft Word is the most widely used Office program, which is fascinating not only for business use but also for private users when it comes to text creation and processing. The software can be used to create simple written documents, complex form letters and other printed products, allowing photos, graphics, tables and other content to be inserted in addition to text. For all components of word processing, the user has almost unlimited options in terms of layout, formatting and conception.

Is Word 2010 still useful?

Word and other Office programs are constantly being developed and released in constantly updated versions over several years. For this reason, the latest version, Word 2016, is recommended for the first purchase of the suite or for purchasing a license. However, there are cases in which Word 2010 should also be considered in the future. An older version of the popular Office program can also be considered when using less powerful computers or servers. If in doubt, users should seek advice on whether upgrading to Word 2016 or purchasing the latest office suite is a more sensible choice.

The most important highlights of Word 2010

Compared to previous versions, the 2010 edition of Word offered significantly greater usability. The modifications to the smaller displays of tablet computers and netbooks were also made, for example noticeable by the slightly narrower ribbon with all the basic functions of the app. When editing text, the automated display of font, size and similar basic information is a fundamental innovation. The effects of a font can be easily checked by moving the mouse over the text to quickly see whether they correspond to the user's expectations.

The ribbon menu with all basic and special functions of Word 2010 can be customized even more easily in this edition. Frequently used effects and features can be called up with a mouse click and make regular work steps in text editing much easier. Equally practical is the display of the most recently opened files, which has now become a standard in all Office programs and many other apps.

With the preamble to Word 2010, Microsoft launched the World Wide Web Applications process at the same time as the additional Office programs. These small applications offer additional customized features on an Internet-based basis. From access to texts to quick editing to the integration of new effects, the spectrum of web applications is wide enough to ensure that users do not have to do without any extras when creating letters, reports or homework in the near future.
