What are ClipWords?
ClipWords are common and uncommon phrases and statements, plus everyday expressions and clever, upbeat, witty attention-grabbers!

Is it like clip art?
In some ways, yes. ClipWords and clip art are used the same way, to help convey a message quickly and easily, but that’s where the similarities end. ClipWords can be used anywhere, anytime, and you can customize them to fit your specific needs. And while some people can spot a piece of clip art at 100 paces, ClipWords can blend in seamlessly with whatever you’re writing!

Is it like a book of quotations?
No. There are no famous quotes in ClipWords software, just useful phrases and statements relating to specific topics. Our Motivation book does have a topick "Quotables".

Where do ClipWords come from?
You see them every day in newspapers, magazines, junk mail, letters,
movies and on billboards. You hear them at cocktail parties, in sermons, on the news, at sporting events, on talk radio, on TV, in business meetings and on the street.

Are ClipWords copyrighted?
Individual Clips are common phrases and statements used in everyday language and may be used as you see fit. However, the software and books are copyrighted as collections and may not be reproduced in whole or in part.

Who uses ClipWords?
Anyone who uses words, and who doesn’t do that?!?

Why do I need ClipWords?
ClipWords is a tool for brainstorming, combating writer’s block, a time-saver, a generator for headlines and themes, it gets your creative juices flowing, puts a fresh twist on your ideas and adds flavor to your copy. Now you’ll never have to say, “I can’t think of what to say!”

I’m not a computer whiz. Is the program easy to learn?
Yes! If you already know basic Windows or Macintosh commands, using the ClipWords programs is a breeze!

Can I print an entire list of Clips?
You can’t print an entire topic list from the Browser window, but you can
print a list of all your selections from the Grabber window or Clips from the Editor window.

Can I apply a typeface to my selection before copying
it to my document?
No, but once you have copied your Clip into your document, you can select the typeface, change the size, and make it bold or italic. Any way you want!

Will it work on my old PC?
