When you use a computer program to create, edit, and format documents, you are performing a task
known as word processing. Microsoft© Word 2013 is one of the most sophisticated word-processing
programs available. By using Word, it is easy to efficiently create a wide range of business and personal
documents, from the simplest letter to the most complex report.

Word and other programs in the Microsoft Office 2013 suite of programs share many common features.
For example, you can coordinate the appearance of document and presentation elements by applying
themes and styles. When you click Design and choose a new Theme, the pictures, charts, and SmartArt
graphics change to match your new theme. When you apply styles, your headings change to match the
new theme.

Video provides a powerful way to help you prove your point. When you click Online Video, you can
paste in the embed code for the video you want to add. You can also type a keyword to search online for
the video that best fits your document.

To make your document look professionally produced, Word provides header, footer, cover page, and
text box designs that complement each other. For example, you can add a matching cover page, header,
and sidebar. Click Insert and then choose the elements you want from the different galleries.

When creating a professional document, be aware that many product names and logos are trademarked
by the companies that create or own them. It is good practice to insert the ™ symbol after the
trademarked item the first time you refer to it in a document. This assures the trademark holder that
you are aware of its ownership of the item. You can insert the ™ symbol from the Symbols group on the
Insert tab or by pressing Alt+Ctrl+T.

Save time in Word with new buttons that show up where you need them. To change the way a picture
fits in your document, click it and a button for layout options appears next to it. When you work on a
table, click where you want to add a row or a column, and then click the plus sign.

Reading is easier, too, in the new Reading view. You can collapse parts of the document and focus on
the text you want. If you need to stop reading before you reach the end, Word remembers where you
left off - even on another device.
