WORD PROCESSOR
Written information is more authentic and proficient than other modes of communication.
Writing involves composing of text and composed text materials that serve as a medium of
valuable ideas and expression.
Imagine a situation where we are creating documents, it would be tedious and lengthy task to
do the following operations manually with the help of a pen and a paper:
l Preparing a document that has large number of papers.
l Editing and changing some contents after the writing work is over.
l Removing some contents of the document and inserting them at some other place in the
document.
l Changing the width (side wise) of the page margins of the document.
l Adding pages and inserting page numbers instantly in the whole document.
l Doing the corrections of the spellings and grammar of text contents of the document.
l Searching a particular word or phrase in the document and replacing it with the other.
All such tasks can be done in a traditional way but that will take a lot of time and energy. Such
tasks or written work can be created in a much organized manner and can be easily handled
when typed in a computer with the help of a ‘Word Processing’ package.
A word processing package is software that provides methods and mechanisms to type text and
create documents. It allows editing, modifying, printing and saving the contents electronically
making our work much easier.
