Microsoft® Word Viewer 97 The Microsoft Word Viewer 97 allows people who already use any version of Microsoft Word to now share their documents with users who do not have Word. This product also allows users who wish to post rich-formatted Word documents on the Internet to expand their online audience to people who might not have Word. Word Viewer allows users who do not have Microsoft Word for Windows® to view and print documents created in the Word native file format. Word Viewer 97 allows users to zoom, outline, or view page layout, headers/footers, footnotes, and annotations. Word Viewer 97 includes the following, market-leading Microsoft Word 97 features: Online Layout View for easy reading of online documents, including those with background colors and textures. Document Map for point-and-click navigation through longer documents Hyperlink navigation to open any hyperlink in a document with your installed browser Word Viewer 97 does not allow users to edit files. However, it allows them to copy information from a document to other applications. Microsoft Word Viewer 97 will follow hyperlinks located in Word documents. Word Viewer 97 is built to automatically configure itself as a Helper Application for Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer. This allows users to automatically view Word documents that are linked to Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) pages on a LAN or the World Wide Web (WWW) in the user's default Web browser. Word Viewer by itself can follow document hyperlinks on a LAN. This new capability allows users to browse rich document systems on a LAN in much the same way a Web browser allows you to explore the Internet. This product is "freeware." We encourage you to copy and distribute Word Viewer to your friends and co-workers or post it on public electronic bulletin boards. The Word Viewer is also available from the Microsoft Download Service at (425) 936-6735.
