As a cost effective alternative to some of the more costly home office software suites available, Corel Home Office is hard to beat. Word processing, spreadsheet editing and presentation software are included in the Corel Home Office package. We were impressed with Corel Home Office’s user friendly interface and compatibility with other office programs. For combining an appealing price tag and essential productivity tools in an easy-to-use software suite, Corel Home Office easily edged out the competition for our “TopTenREVIEWS Silver Award.” Home users and students alike will find Corel Home Office to be an indispensible tool.
The Corel Home Office word processor’s name says it all—Write. Write is a straightforward program that makes an ideal platform for writing term papers, professional-looking resumes, letters, memos and just about any other document imaginable. Corel Write includes requisite features such as spell check, grammar check and automatic typo correction. With full support only for English, French, Spanish and German, Corel Write’s native support for foreign languages is somewhat limited.
Corel Write’s interface is organized in an intuitive fashion that will be comfortable to anyone with even the most basic experience with Microsoft Word or WordPerfect. As we would expect from any competent word processor, Corel Write supports images, charts and tables. Its formatting options make common tasks like pagination, resource citation, hypertext and footnotes easy one-click operations.
Because Corel Write files are not universally supported and often result in unsightly formatting errors when opened with Microsoft Word or other word processors, we appreciate Corel Home Office’s PDF converter. Saving a document as a PDF file ensures that you evade formatting errors and preserve the professional appearance of resumes, papers, budgets and schedules.
