WORD
PROCESSOR
“A word processing package is used to prepare
and edit text.”
Word
processors are used to create all types of documents such as letters, reports
and essays. Using a word processor you can type, revise and correct a document
on the screen before printing it out.
The layout of the page can be changed and a wide
variety of different styles of text can be used to improve the presentation of
a document. Tools such as spelling checkers can help ensure that the contents
of a document are accurate.
The functions of a word processor can be divided up into several different
categories:- Page Layout : The page layout functions let you decide how each page will be set out.
- Text Presentation : The appearance of text can be easily altered. Different fonts and styles can be used and the size of text can be varied. Text can be neatly lined up on the page.
- Editing of Text : Text editing functions are used to revise and change text that you have entered.
- Blocks of Text: The style and position of selected blocks of text can be changed.
- Text Analysis : The word processor can look at your document and try to highlight any errors such as spelling or grammatical mistakes that you have made.
- Templates: Template files let you save favorite document layouts that you have created so that you can use them over and over again.
- Other Features: Most modern word processors will offer lots of extra features such as tables, bullet points and fancy text effects.
- Mail Merging : A
database of names and addresses can be used to personalize letters that
have been created in a word processor
