'''Protext''' is one of the most successful British word processor programs, developed by Peterborough-based [[Arnor|Arnor Ltd.]] Ltd between 1985 and 1995. It was sold on tape, disc or as ROM.
Protext has sold over 30,000 copies.
Original written for the Amstrad [[CPC464]]464, Protext was subsequently released for the Amstrad [[PCW|PCW8256]], the IBM-PC, the [[Atari ST]], [[Amiga|Commodore Amiga ]] and the [[Acorn Archimedes]].
When [[Arnor]] closed in 1995 it seemed that Protext had become another British casualty of the fast-evolving world of computers.
