You will need to locate a tool online by using Google search to do that, if it is even possible. Have you read this support doc https://en.support.wordpress.com/microsoft-word/?
Provided it is a site hosted by wordpress.COM that you refer to then there is a print button http://en.support.wordpress.com/sharing/ in the sharing buttons linked to above that you can enable and it will appear at the end of every post/page. Both you and your visitors can use it post by post or page by page.
Here are options for printing an entire blog

Timethief, thanks for the prompt reply,but the first two links aren’t what I was looking for.
I’ve just finished it as a wordpress post (my first, I think) and cannot replicate it in Word.
It’s doing my head in. -
You can use Windows Live Writer and the publish the post/page directly from that program, and it is a free download. https://en.support.wordpress.com/xml-rpc/windows-live-writer/ Have you tried that?

Thanks again Timethief, but this is as far as I get:
‘Remote posting web address for your blog – only change <blogname> to your actual blog name. The URL needs to end in xmlrpc.php.’
When I insert my blog name -making pcpc.wordpress.com.xmlrpc.php
it’s not recognised -
You have a unnecessary space in there that is queering things in that URL.
Try https://makingpcpc.wordpress.com/xmlrpc.php/
If it does not work then type modlook into the sidebar tags on this thread for a Staff follow-up.

Hi there,
Do you mean you want to export the post you published on WordPress.com into a Word document?
The only way to do that is to copy-paste into Word, but it won’t preserve the formatting as it appears in your blog posts. That’s because your blog uses HTML while Word uses RIch Text Formatting. Those are two completely different coding languages and they’re not compatible with each other, so you’ll need to redo any formatting that doesn’t make it across in Word.
If you mean you want to create posts on your blog via Word, please follow the instructions @timethief provided, and use the link as she typed it above.
