Open Office can open both file types you named, and is free. I have never tried to save in a format other than .doc, but it might save in .wp9 if you ask real nice.

Adobe Acrobat is the best way to create pdf from MS Word document, but I am not sure it is able to convert TO MS Word document format. It just isn’t its purpose. \nAdobe Photoshop is just great graphic editor and can in advantage generate documents in portable document format. But it isn’t word processor at all. Does one really think, Photoshop is the best way to create doc-files? And it is even good word processor, ‘so can keep spaces between line… You can, however, to import pdf in Photoshop and create some graphic format – psd, png, eps, even jpeg…\nI can suggest two options:\n- "Pdf to Doc converter": see (on download) it on  http://www.solidpdf.com/pdf/_to_doc_converter/37\n- "ePrint File Converter Software" - it support 150 document and image formats and you can download it from - http://www.eprintdriver.com/ePrintFileConverter.html\n\nOne more important thing – both of this applications are not free. You can, however, to download trail version. \nI hope at least tool will be useful for you.

you can design one in your wordpreocessor, and then save it as a file, and then you could paste it on the top of every document when you start it, I don't know which one you have, but MS WORD, MS WORKS, Wordperfect, all of these are cable, and probably have templates. If you have none, there is free suite at opensource.com, that is comprable to MSworks called Openoffice.org 2.0, it is just like MS office

If you do not have MS Office, MS Word, or any other software that uses the '.doc' format, you will not be able to view files of that format.  Most likely, this format will not be available in the drop-down box mentioned above, either.\nAlternatively, you should still be able to save the files as a valid .doc file by typing quotations around the full file name in the 'file name' section of the Save screen.\n\nFor example, if you have a document titled 'example' and you want it saved as a .doc file, but have no other option of saving it as such...in the 'file name' box simply type the following:\n"example.doc"\nwith the quotation marks.\n\nIn order to view the file, however, you will have to have the necessary software installed on your system.  The extension has to be assigned to a valid program such as MS Word or WordPad I believe views .doc files, as well - though some of the advanced formatting available in MSWord will be lost when viewed with WordPad.\n\n***RESPONSE TO ADDITIONAL DETAILS***\nDid you try putting the quotation marks around the file name...such as\n"example.doc"\n\nWhen you add the quotations, it will save the file in the format specified regardless of what is in the "save as" box.\n\nAlso, open any folder (such as 'My Documents', for example) and go to Tools - Folder Options.  Click the 'File Types' tab and scroll down the list of file types until you find 'DOC'.  If you find it, down near the bottom where it says 'Opens with...' click 'Change' and browse for the program you prefer.\n\nIf you can't find it, click 'New', and in the top box, type\nDOC\nthen click 'Okay'.  Find DOC in the list, then follow the instructions above to select the appropriate program for it.

Microsoft Word is not availble as a free download. \n\nIf you have Microsoft WORKS, you can use the Works Word Processor.   When you go to SAVE your file, use SAVE AS, then select the File Type as one of the versions of Microsoft Word, so people that have Word can open it.   \n\nOr get Open Office from http://www.openoffice.org and use the Writer part of it to make Word compatible documents. \n\nGood luck and Happy Computing!

Hmm.. Microsoft wants to make more money?  I don't think it was free back in Win98.\n\nHowever you can download a free open source Office Suite that can do almost exactly what Word/Excel can do.\n\nhttp://www.openoffice.org/

1) Open Office v2.x\nhttp://www.openoffice.org/\n\n2) http://www.e-press.com/home.asp \nLook for the free version; The software recently changed so it might not be free anymore...doesn't hurt to check it :)\n\n3) 602 Suite i still have in my URL links too.  See if there is still a free version for that :)\nhttp://www.software602.com/products/pcs/\n\nThere are some individual programs out there that mimic or can open Word, or Excel, but I would just go for the Suite(s).\n\nHave fun!

Look into OpenOffice.  I hear it is as good if not better then MSOffice and is 100% compatible and the price is right- free!

http://www.litexmedia.com/wma_workshop/\n\nI had the same question a month ago, and the program suggested in the best answer really worked out for me. You can convert anything to and fro with this software. It has a foolproof interface, though it is just a 30-day long free trial version.

No, but you can get OpenOffice. It's practically the same as MS Office but free. It's awesome.\nwww.openoffice.org\nYou can also save your documents as MS Word or excel files so your friends can open them, or it can open MS Office docs.

for a free way to do it, you could copy/paste the text into something that will export as a pdf (like OpenOffice) and just edit it there. The pdf reader that comes with windows wont edit text. *sigh*
