XWord extends the Microsoft Office 2007 ribbon by displaying a new tab, that offers you the ability to work with XWiki.

To add a new page all you have to do is click the "Add page" button in the ribbon.

The Wiki Explorer, located on the right side of the screen, contains a tree view with the spaces and pages on your wiki server. Each node in the tree view has a context menu, that works in a similar manner as the Wiki Explorer group in the ribbon

Downloading attachments is very easy. All you have to do is select the attachment from the Wiki Explorer and right click to download it.
