Type It1.0

Type It is an approachable software solution that comes in handy for those who want a basic text editor without complicated functions. It features support to look up unknown terms on Thesaurus.com, Encyclopedia.com or Dictionary.com.

Create nice-looking drafts

The program is wrapped in a self-explanatory and clean layout, consisting of a word editor and a small toolbar that stacks common functions, like undo or text alignment.

Count your words and look up unknown terms

Type It can open files with the TXT and RTF extension and save them in their original format. It's possible to personalize the composition with various font types, styles, sizes and colors, as well as to align the sentences to the left, right or center.A character counter is integrated into the toolbar. You can zoom in and out, search for particular words, wrap the text to the window, and look up words on Dictionary, Thesaurus or Encyclopedia.

Poor character map support

When it comes to inserting symbols into the document, the only choices you have are several math and law signs. The app could've included a richer set of special characters, such as dollar, euro, alpha, square, line or sum.

Nice features that could've been integrated

Plus, there are no options to attach images, create small tables or bullet lists to organize essential data, or make shopping lists. It would've been a great help if a spellchecker was included to highlight mistakes and offer suggestions.

Fast and intuitive word processor

On an ending note, Type It is a useful piece of software designed to help you compose plain and rich text documents, customize the content with font types and colors, as well as view word definitions on specialized websites. However, it doesn't bring anything new to the table and doesn't have options for experienced users.
