is it comparable to WordPerfect

To be quite honest, I haven't used WordPerfect very much, so I couldn't say. But I do know it has very respectable formatting abilities, nice assortment of fonts and sizes, plus a lot more other amenities I just didn't expect from a free program; there are spreadsheets, point-whatchamacallit templates, even some for making up flyers, business cards and other things. There's links to go to to get even more templates, but though they looked very interesting, I didn't have much need for them, a lot of them had to do with other languages and those techno-functions that are far beyond my ken. It's quite easy to use, also. I like Scrivener, once I got used to it, but you practically need an engineering degree to figure out how to use the damn thing. Hope that helps!

From the questions you ask about Microsoft Works 9.0 I don't think this is what you are looking for. Microsoft Works is a BASIC do everything package and it is not very useful in anything you asked. It is very limited in the things it does do. It has a lot of templates for people that want something to do basic things for them. The word processor is very basic and helps if you are not a good speller for instance. I found that for things that you call house hold chores that there was nothing that I could uses it for because you had to use something and a format that was chosen by someone that you could not change in any way. I found the data base part of the software to be very useful for my needs and use it very often. I think that you will find that is the case with any "do everything" software. I think in the long run it is best to buy the specific software for each thing you want to do rather than a do all do nothing right package. Harold

There are at least two very good, free, open source word processors I can recommend. One is Abiword, a dedicated word processor. The other is Libre Office (also available as "Open Office"), which is a free MS Office like package including a spreadsheet program (like Excel) a presentation program (like PowerPoint) and others - all compatible with MS Office files.Search for the programs using Google and download and install what you want.

It isn't a complete substitute in that even thought it will open and edit Office files, there will be occasional incompatibility. It does have the functionality of Office and some nuances that many find to be big advantages, such as easily being able to "reveal codes" to see why a document is behaving the way it is. That is something that has been invaluable when formatting is an issue. I find I can do things with WP I just can't get Office to do.

No but there are other free word processing apps via Google Play store. If you must have MS Windows/Office, you need to buy their tablet brand.

I have had no issues just using Word and internet. It's ran smoothly. It's just hard to get use to the new operating system.

No. It's not the best software, most people on blogs recommend upgrading. I still use sure cuts alot. It crashes frequently and is not the most user friendly thing I've ever used but a few hours of youtube/blog reading can get it up and running. Windows only.

You can use Word equivalent off google-play, but I am not sure whether they would be literal equivalents of MS Office.

We have this printer and WordPerfect which we love using. Never had the problem you're describing. Perhaps you should increase your fonts in the font folder in your version of WP. Should be an easy fix. Or, perhaps, the font folder for your printer is missing the necessary font(s). Should be an easy fix.

I only use the WordPerfect part not the other components. It serves my purpose. Not knowing what the professional version has that the standard doesn't, I can't answer that.

Yes, Peter, it works with MS Win 7. You can read MS Office documents like Word. It can only be seen by Word users in their E-mails IF you save the file in an MS Word format. Unlike MS Word which can't read or save in the WordPerfect file types, WordPerfect can open MS Word documents and save documents in either the WordPerfect file type or the MS Word file types.

No, but you can download Open office for free and it does all that MS Office does. Actually some things better.

It comes with software that allows you to paste text into the dialog box and alter the font style and size. I am using Windows 7, and it does OK.

nope...office 2012+ version is the suitable version, as far I tried. Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2013 was successful.
