StyleWriter 4
— the Plain English Editor
(for WINDOWS®) — is the world's largest
computerized style and usage checker.
StyleWriter checks word-processed documents against 50,000+
language problems and ways of clarifying the style.
The program helps
you edit and polish writing into clear and concise English. Running from within
your word processor on your files, StyleWriter 4 is the quickest way to improve
your writing style. It teaches you the techniques of top-grade journalists,
editors and other professional writers, and helps you break poor writing
habits.
You don’t have to be an expert in the English language or
in computers to use Style Writer. It avoids technical terms and concentrates on making your writing more readable.

10 Times More
Powerful
Than Any Grammar Checker
StyleWriter 4 is not
a grammar checker. Grammar checkers try to show you how to write a correct
sentence by analyzing each word for its part of speech and then only accepting
sentences if the parts of speech are in the right order. Frankly, we all know
how irritating grammar checkers can be, highlighting correct English and often
missing real mistakes.
We did a little experiment and wrote a passage
containing 25 grammatical mistakes. We asked people attending a writing course
to try to spot them. The lowest score was 20 out of 25. When we ran a grammar
checker through the same passage, it only found six mistakes but stopped in the
wrong place over 30 times.
The best way to improve grammatical skills
is to write clearly and to read what you have written. As editors, our
experience tells us that style and usage faults (confusing words, hyphenation
and word division) outnumber grammatical errors by 30 to 1.
If you want to write well, you have to learn the secrets
of professional editors and top writers. StyleWriter teaches you these skills
and helps you write clearly and effectively for results.
StyleWriter does not parse the sentence, but looks for the faults that
editors look for whenever they redraft a document. With
35,000 style and usage faults, StyleWriter has about 10 times the power of a
conventional grammar checker.

Rid Yourself of
Poor Writing Habits
The main aim when writing is to put your
ideas across with the greatest possible clarity and write in a way that best
serves your reader. Plain English is clear English. It is simple and direct,
but is not simplistic or simple-minded.
Every top publication -
Newsweek, Scientific America or the Economist - uses plain English to make
writing interesting and easy to read. StyleWriter helps
you write in the clear English style by identifying words and phrases in your
writing that get in the way of clarity and poor style. The program does
not encourage a standard style that everyone should follow. Rather, by helping
you break out of the typical business writing style, StyleWriter encourages you
to express yourself in your own words.
Using plain English does not mean
everyone's writing must sound the same. There is no one right way to express an
idea. There's plenty of room for individual style, rhetoric and imaginative
writing. So let StyleWriter help you get rid of your poor
writing habits and let you express yourself in your own words.
