Corel® WordPerfect® 8

PerfectExpert™

This groundbreaking technology combines interactive help and advanced wizard technology to let you get the job done without hunting through manuals, online references or multiple menus.

Grammar-As-You-Go

Corel WordPerfect 8 helps you spot and correct common grammatical errors. A companion to Spell-As-You-Go™, this feature makes professional writing easy. Phrases in question are specially marked; a right-click brings up a menu of possible suggestions, each a keystroke away.

Shadow Cursor

Formatting complex documents? Insert text or graphics anywhere with the revolutionary Shadow Cursor, a “ghost” cursor that follows the movement of the mouse. It’s an essential tool for placing the insertion point exactly where you want it.

Bullets and Numbering

To make it easier for you to access key features in a flash, Corel® WordPerfect® 8 now includes Bullets and Numbering in the same place. It’s another way Corel moves the software out of the way of your work.
