A Simple Way to View Office Files Online

1•Ali-Choulnard•7mo ago
Ever had to open a Word, Excel, or PowerPoint file on a device that doesn’t have Microsoft Office installed? It happens more often than we think—especially when switching between computers, using mobile devices, or working on shared machines.

That’s where Office Viewer comes in.

This lightweight online tool lets you open .docx, .xlsx, .pptx, and other common document formats directly in your browser. No need to install software, create an account, or upload files to a server—everything happens locally and securely.

What It Supports Word documents

Excel spreadsheets

PowerPoint presentations

CSV and PDF files

ZIP and RAR archives

Whether you’re reviewing a presentation on your phone or checking a spreadsheet on a borrowed laptop, Office Viewer gives you quick access without the hassle.

Give it a try here: https://officeviewer.org/
