Microsoft Word Web App for Office 2010

Integrate seamlessly with Word

You create a document in Word. You want to post it on a Web site so that others can read it, maybe print it out. What if you notice after you've posted it that you spelled someone's name wrong? Wouldn't it be great if you could just fix it quickly, right there on the Web site? Word Web App makes this scenario possible.

Read a document in the browser

When you open your document in Office Live or SharePoint, Word Web App opens the document in the browser. The layout and formatting are what you would see if you were to open the document in Print Layout view in Word.

Print from the browser

Word Web App prints a document as it appears in Reading view.
Note: A PDF viewer is required for printing in Word Web App. If you don't already have a PDF viewer installed, you will be prompted to download one.

Edit in the browser

If you want to make changes to the document, click Edit in Browser. In Editing view you can add and delete content, and format text. Editing view is optimised for editing content, not displaying the document. Layout is simplified in Editing view, and items that the view cannot display are shown as placeholders. The placeholders prevent you from inadvertently deleting document content that can be displayed but not edited in Word Web App.

In Editing view, you can type as you normally would, and you can use copy/paste and undo/redo commands. You can format text by applying styles and all the text formatting choices that you see on the Home tab.

You can also add pictures or clip art, as well as tables and hyperlinks. Clip art comes from the collection of images available from Office.com. Go to the Insert tab to add these.

If you want to see how your changes will look in the document, click Save on the File tab, and then switch back to Reading view: on the View tab, click Reading View.

Seamlessly edit in Word

Editing in Word Web App is best suited for quick changes, such as making a correction, inserting a picture, or adding more text. If you need the full set of Word capabilities, click the File tab, and then click Open in Word.

Word Web App opens the document directly in your Word desktop application, where you can work more substantially - for example, if you want to modify styles in the document, change SmartArt, or add headers and footers. In Word, when you click Save, Word saves the document back on the Web server.

Note: To be able to use the Open in Word feature in Word Web App you must be running Word 2003 or later and Internet Explorer or Word 2010 and Firefox.
