Writer's Cork Board

info & user's guide

The Writer's Cork Board is not software. It is a Microsoft Word document that utilizes text boxes as "index cards." There is also a version for LibreOffice Writer. You must have either Microsoft Word or LibreOffice Writer installed on your computer in order to be able to use The Writer's Cork Board.

 

Since the Writer's Cork Board is a Word document, the user can make changes or additions to it that are possible in any Word document: fonts & font properties can be changed, text can be copied and pasted, card color can be changed, page (i.e., cork board) size and/or orientation can be changed, multiple cork boards can be created (within a single project, or, of course, for different projects), the cork boards can be saved & printed ... you get the idea. The flexibility is vast.
