Hi,

If these documents are already within the Drive portion of your Google account, 
then I would use the Google Drive Desktop app for your Mac.  Once you install 
this app, all items within the Drive part of your Google account will be 
downloaded to your Mac automatically.  You can then use your Finder to copy and 
paste items in and out of the Google Drive with ease.

If the documents are shared with you via Google, then you may wish to add them 
to your Drive.  To accomplish this, you can arrow through the list of documents 
pressing the letter "x" on the ones you wish to download or add to your Drive.  
Each time you press the letter "x", the document is selected.  Once you have 
the ones selected you wish to play with, navigate up or left to the "Add to 
Drive" button or to the "More" button.  The "Add to Drive" is self-explanatory 
and the "More" will give you the option to download the selected items and 
translate them to Word etc.  This will work in either Chrome or Safari, 
whichever you prefer.

Hope this makes sense.  Let me know if you need something clarified.

Later...
