Documents often start in folders
Briefs, notes, drafts, project docs, and handoffs usually belong beside other project files. Creating the blank Word document in Finder keeps that organization intact.
Avoid creating then moving
Opening Word first often means saving and navigating back to the project folder. CreateFiles+ flips that order: create the file where it belongs, then open it.
Part of a broader starter-file workflow
CreateFiles+ also handles text, Markdown, CSV, JSON, HTML, code, script, Excel, and PowerPoint starter files.
How to do it with CreateFiles+
- Open the destination folder.
