From Carolina Road Software:
Jarte is a free, tabbed word processor based on the Microsoft WordPad word-processing engine built into Windows. Like WordPad, Jarte is fast, easy to use, reliable, requires little screen space, and creates documents perfectly compatible with Word. But Jarte reveals the WordPad engine's true hidden power by adding many features Microsoft never made available in the WordPad program. Jarte can even be run directly from a USB flash drive.
What's new in this version: Version 4.5 has added auto capitalization feature and new Save Other command.

"A Great Unique and 100% Fully Functional Word Processor"
Version: Jarte 4.5
Pros
Jarte is completely different to most Word Processors. It has a very clean interface without all the complex and hardly ever used features of the more popular ones. Yet it does everything that you would ever need it to do. Its layout is so different which makes it extremely unique and a joy to work with. Plus its document formats are compatible with any office word processor. It really is great.
Cons
For me, there are no cons to this word processor.
Summary
Jarte is so unique in its layout and is still very simple to use. It focuses more on content rather than having a huge ribbon at the top with so many confusing functions. But despite that, it has all the functionality that anyone could possibly need from a Word Processor.
Because of its uniqueness, some people may find it a bit of a surprise when they first use it. But I would say, take a look, familiarize yourself with it and then decide if it's for you.
Overall, it is a very good and welcome change to what's out there already. -
"Wow Jarte leaves Wordpad in the dust."
Version: Jarte 4.5
Pros
It may be based on the wordpad engine but it is what Microsoft should have given us. AND... If you want a feature it does not have you can contact Jarte support. If it is a good feature they may put it in a future upgrade. Try getting in touch with Microsoft about a feature you think would be an inprovement and unless thousands of other people are also asking for it they will probably not include it, or it will be years before in is included. Also Microsoft wants you to upgrade to their expensive Microsoft Word, not like a free program so much you only need it. If you do need a little more power in your word processor you can upgrade to Jarte's Plus version for just a few dollars instead of the hundreds Word costs.
The other word processors I use have so many features that I only use about ten percent of them and sometimes I have to search through large multi-page menus to find what I want.Cons
It doesn't have all the fancy bells that Microsoft Word has so if you're used to using Word you may find a feature you miss. Then again you might just contact Jarte support and find they are going to be including that feature in the future. Also by looking in the FAQs you might find they have it, but get there in a different way than you are used to.
Summary
I have been using it for a while now and although I have several other word processors that I use, I find that I am using Jarte more and more due to it's simplicity. It just works!

"Jarte is the best."
Version: Jarte 4.5
Pros
Easy to use and skinnable.
Cons
None that I can think of.
Summary
I have been using Jarte since version 2.x and have never had any problems. The fact that it saves in RTF by default is just fine with me, in fact, I prefer it.

"Great replacement for wordpad"
Version: Jarte 4.5
Pros
Only used it for a few days, but finding that it does about everything I need.
Cons
Out of the box it was disconcerting to have to deal only with icons and and rather different header. Getting into setting options made it more friendly for me.
Summary
The more I use it, the better I like it.
