Word is a word processor, so it is designed for that particular kind of work. It can be used to do other things, even calculations like a spreadsheet, but you would use something like Excel to do that. It is not a desktop publisher, so it doesn't have the level of functionality for creating plush magazines etc., though the gap between what a word processor can do and what a desktop publisher can do, is not as great as it once was. So it depends on what it is that you want to do.

∙ 13y agoAs well as there being many advantages of using Microsoft Word there are also some disadvantages:
· Compatibility-While written work saved in a word processor is supposedly universal and easily accessible; in reality it may be difficult to access work on computers using different software or older versions of the same software.
· Internet Requirements-Word processing software often depends on fast internet connection for optimal use and easy help-menu access; for users without good Internet access, word processing functionality can be limited.
· Difficult-Microsoft Word has advanced functions which may be difficult for some learners to pick up on.
