What is Jarte?
The Jarte word processor uses Microsofts reliable, fast starting WordPad word processing engine while adding many features missing in WordPad.
Jarte can save files as .doc, .rtf, or .txt. It has all the features that most students or writers need with none of the bloat. It can do headers, footers, and has spell check as well as a word count function. It also uses tabs for quick access to multiple files. It is also portable.

Comments and Reviews
Said about Jarte as an alternative
It is small, fast, efficient text editor. Many of the other results here are not. It is built on WordPad's "engline".

Jarte is my favourite word processor in Windows. Simple, reliable and lightweight. I only wish a Linux version was available.
You should check out SSuite Office for a free word processor. It has almost all the features of Word, and looks and works the same. {except for the ribbons}. Their word processor is called WordGraph.
It is only 12 MB in size. Nice and small :) . Their software also don't need to run on Java or .NET, like so many open source software, so it makes their software very small and efficient.
