Edi - Text Editor

Edi - Text Editor is a straightforward text editor that help you create documents with images, tables and hyperlinks, and export them as Word, OpenOffice or PDF files.

The user interface resembles Microsoft Word’s layout. It adopts the ribbon-like design that allows an easier discovery of the program’s features. You may reveal or conceal the features embedded within the ribbon.

The tool implements an advanced template system that helps you create documents from a template by filling out several value fields. The new file is automatically generated based on the user-defined values, while preserving the layout of the original document.

You are given the freedom to create multiple templates, define their layout, and store variables in the document. All templates are displayed in the main window, and you can perform searches by name, description or storage location.

You can save the documents to DOCX, DOC, ODT, EPUB, MHT, RTF, or HTML file format. There’s support for a built-in print designer that helps you arrange the documents before printing them.

You can export the text to PDF file format, compress images, set up passwords, apply signature, and provide information about the program, author, keywords, subject, and title.

Documents may also be saved to image formats, namely BMP, EMF, WMF, GIF, PNG, TIFF, or JPG, or sent via emails using your default client.

Edi - Text Editor lets you work with basic editing tools for copying, pasting, deleting or cutting text. Plus, you can undo or redo your actions, tweak the text in terms of font, color, size and alignment, as well as insert hyperlinks, tables, images, bookmarks, header and footer, text boxes, as well as special symbols.

You are allowed to change the color of the background page, correct the spelling of your words in real time, set up dictionaries, and password-protect documents. There’s also support for different view modes, namely simple, draft and print, and you can zoom in or out of the pages and show or hide a horizontal and vertical ruler.

Tests have shown that Edi - Text Editor records no lags while typing text and moves pretty quickly. It doesn’t eat up a lot of CPU and memory resources, so the overall performance of the system is not hampered.

Edi - Text Editor lets you configure the spelling process, namely ignore words in uppercase, emails, websites, repeated words, as well as words with numbers. Plus, you can alter the looks of the utility by choosing between several skins and pick the saving locations.

No doubt Edi - Text Editor is not as rich-featured as Microsoft Word but it provides an essential feature pack that may be just enough for some users who are not looking for and making use of all the options included in Word.
