This may be helpful to many users, but all of the buttons also seem to make the toolbar seem a little cluttered. It displays recent documents and new document options so that a new file can be opened quickly. The total lack of features and strange layout in Kingsoft Writer 2010 makes it seem like the whole word processing software was thrown together without much thought.

RagTime 6 has a simple drop-down menu format with menu labels and icons that are very different from the general layout used by most other word processing software. This can be confusing for new software users and old pros, alike. It doesn't provide a watermark option to keep company images and logos safe from reproduction .To open a new document you must use the RagTime Foyer, which is a menu that lists document types. Overall, the massive lack of features makes RagTime 6 almost unusable for most people, business minded or not. The layout features may be its only redeemable area, but these features are best suited for those that need to design advertisements and book layouts.
