How to write a letter and then print it

Hello luci37388,

Thank you for posting to the Microsoft Answers Forum.

There is not an Office Suite of products included in the Microsoft Operating System. However, if you purchased an OEM computer from a retail establishment, they may have included Microsoft Works or Microsoft Office as part of a package deal. You can then use Word or Microsoft Works to type a letter.

Included in all versions of Windows 7 there is Notepad for creating text files and Wordpad which has more complex formatting available. You would get to them by going to Windows Start Button, select All Programs, and select Accessories. When the list expands you can select Notepad or Wordpad to write your letter. Then you can print using Print option. You must have already added your printer.

If you have more specific questions or if I didn't answer your question, please reply back and let us know.

Sincerely,

please contact me as how to get to the correct setting to write and print a letter

Assuming that you have a printer hooked up and working, these suggestions have come up in this thread:

1. Notepad and Wordpad are on nearly all versions of Windows . Wordpad will let you do more with fonts and formatting. Search for them and use them enough to become familiar with them. You can edit repeatedly until you get a printed letter you're satisified with.

2. Sign in at https://onedrive.live.com click on New then Word Document. Compose then print

3. Google Docs: Sign in at https://docs.google.com/document/u/0/ compose then print

4. Compose the letter as an email. Send it to yourself and print it

5. For a real Word Processor try the free Open Office https://www.openoffice.org/  (Replaced by LibreOffice)

6. Also free LibreOffice https://www.libreoffice.org/

* There is a learning curve with all of these programs. Edit the letter until it looks good on screen, print it and do some more editing if you don't like the printed version.
