I just haven’t been happy with the MS Office Word 2016, and so far am planning on using TextMaker as my full-time word processor however, am still in early testing ‘n I don’t want to ’ Jump the Gun ’ just yet. The MS Office Word 2007 has that clean opening blank look like TextMaker, but the Word 2016 version is just too busy ‘n cluttered looking 1 st opening for me…tho with a 2 nd step of clicking on the “Blank document” choice you get to the clean look.
