O Office Online it has been around for a long time, but to get access, it was necessary to go to the site Outlook.com (old hotmail.com) to log in and then look for the Skydrive option that is currently Onedrive. The old Office Web Apps did not have many features and also integrated PowerPoint and OneNote.
Microsoft on Monday released a major update for Office Online (formerly Office Web Apps), launching new features for each of the four applications in the suite, such as printing for OneNote Online (among other changes). In Excel, you can now add, edit or delete comments, open files with VBA and access Tell Me, a help feature that was previously available in Word.
He also presented the new website for Office Online which and office.com, as I said, will not take many turns to gain access, it will only be necessary to access the domain “www.office.com”And then log in to your Outlook or Hotmail account. Another novelty is that, now with just one click you can also install the office on Google Chrome, for that it will be necessary to go to your browser's store or Chrome Web Store.
The text editor also has new features, one of which is the possibility to include comments in editing mode (previously it was only possible to comment documents in view mode). Adding footnotes was simplified and the program became smarter to work with lists.
O Word Online has a new option to download the document as a PDF file, and is best for printing with PDF readers installed on Internet Explorer and Chrome. Remembering that to have access to Office Online the user must have an Outlook or Hotmail account.
If you have not tried the Microsoft Office suite online, it's free, go to the Office.com and be happy.
