Write a letter in word online

Writing a letter like this while you're online is quick and easy.

Choose one of our letter templates, and open it in Word for the web to make it yours.

Tip: If you're already in Word for the web, get to the letter templates by going to File > New, and then below the template images click More on Office.com.

You'll be on the Templates for Word page. In the list of categories, click Letters.

As you work on the letter, you'll probably want to rename it.

Send your letter

When you're finished, print it or send it out electronically. You can do this with the letter still open in Word for the web. No need to save it first (that's already done for you).

Print it

To print it, press Ctrl+P, and wait for the Print dialog.

Note: If you don't see a Print dialog box, click the link for opening a PDF version of your letter. From there, use the PDF program's Print command.

Send a link to your letter

For an electronic version of your letter, send out a link:

1. Near the top of the screen, click Share.

2. Under Share, click Get a Link.

   

3. Under Choose an option, click View only.

   

4. Click Create Link.

5. Click on the web address to select it, and then copy and paste it into an email, message, or post.
