Edit DOTX files

Edit on pages at the document’s own size and margins, with page breaks, zoom and a headings outline: its own paragraph styles, fonts (shown in the device’s closest match), bold, italic, underline, strikethrough, super- and subscript, colour and highlight, alignment, spacing and indents, bulleted and numbered lists with levels, links, tables (rows, columns, merged cells, shading), pictures (resize, or edit in Images), page breaks, and headers and footers with page numbers. Footnotes and comments are shown beside the pages and tracked changes in the text, to accept or reject. Find and replace, word count and the browser’s spell check. Save as DOCX, ODT, RTF, PDF, plain text, Markdown or a web page. Saved into the same package: paragraphs you didn’t edit keep their exact XML, edited ones keep every property Anyfile doesn’t show, and styles, numbering, headers, fields, bookmarks, comments and anything else in the file are kept. Text boxes, shapes, charts and SmartArt are shown as placeholders and kept as they are; floating pictures are shown in line with the text. Saves as a template again or as a document.
