5 Advanced Features Of A Word Processor

This blog post is about the well-known word processor Microsoft Word. In the blog post I will mention 5 advance features that you can use in Word.

1. Macros

A macro is a predefined function which is activated by a single keystroke. For example you can record a macro and change the colour of text to red and save the key stroke as CTRL + R, when you press CTRL + R the colour of the text will change to red. The good thing about these as it can save you time when doing tasks

2. Symbols

Symbols can be entered into a document by going into a menu. This process may take up your time if you use the same symbol frequently. To save you time you can assign a symbol to a key. Like macros you just assign a key stroke and then the symbol will appear.

3. Background Colour

In word you can change the background colour. You can select a colour or a fill depending on what you want.
4.Envelopes

There is a special tool in Microsoft Word that will automatically create an envelope for you. All you need to do is insert your return address and the recipient’s address. But, if you want, you can also customize the envelope to suit your needs. Just go to Tools>Envelopes

5. Labels

All you need to do is provide the text you want on the labels, pick a type of label, and then format the text to best fit the label you chose.
