Hello, I use Microsoft Word for the Mac practically on a daily basis. The ways that I’ve made it work for me, is by first going to that ribbon. I stop interacting with it then I get to the point where it will show me the text that’s currently in the document. I interact with that and I’m able to read the document. At least that’s a whole lot better than Microsoft Word to the max started out back in 2016. Back then it wasn’t usable for very much other than you could create a document but you had to leave it in draft mode. Today’s version at least is usable and all of its modes.
When I talk about my experience with Microsoft Word to the math I want to be clear that it is the version that is actually on the local machine. Not the web version of Microsoft Word which I believe still is virtually inaccessible. And when I deal with documents that I create an word on the Mac and read them in the version of the same program and Windows live had very few compatibility issues. For extremely short Word documents, such as the signature file or something of that nature. I can even use TextEdit or doubt in terms of reading it. I’m going to include my signature file which actually is a Word document just as an example. Please note however my signature file is not an endorsement or discrediting my position which the file mentions. I did not write the actual text of the file. But in order to make it work for me I converted the document that was originally in HTML format into a Word document for use as an email signature. In addition I use word for the Mac for most of not all of my academic work that requires the use of Microsoft Word. And ideas it depending on how long the document is for meeting assignments. Yes I think there could be many improvements to the Mac product but it is at least functional right now and can be used easily. So here’s the file. Remember this is just for an example. Of a Word document. Although I did not write this document, I am responsible for its layout since I had to make a few adjustments. Thank you very much in advance for reading this. Everyone stay safe and if possible stay where you are. Have other nice day. Please note, the above text of this email have spent dictated to the computer using dictation software. If there are portions of my writing that are not understandable and/or have grammatical syntax and/or other errors, those errors may be the result of either the software, or the dictation process. If there’s something that you truly don’t understand please contact me and I will do my very best to clear up any misunderstandings.
