If you will define `word processor', we might be able to answer.
My favourite definition is:
A food processor does to food what a word processor does to
words.
Now, if you want to do fine typesetting, rather than slice-n-dice words,
TeX, LaTeX, and troff are all available. 4.2BSD does not come with the
first two, but they can be obtained cheaply (typically for the price of
a trip to the neighbouring University, where they already have one).
