Word-Processing and Web Page Design SECTION 4 1. Consider the following document which was prepared using a word processor. Examine
the layout carefully and answer the questions that follow.
If you use Microsoft Word (or a similar word processor), you probably know well enough how to save a document. You click Save, choose a folder, give the document a name, and then
click Save, OK, or whatever. What you may not know is how to choose a different format for that document, or why you'd want to.
By default, Microsoft Word uses its own, proprietary document format. In the old days, that was the Doc format, but as of Word 2007 (and continuing with Word 2010), it's DOCX. Other word processors have their own standards as well. OpenOffice Writer, for example, uses the the OpenDocument, or ODF, format. Kingsoft Writer1 uses a format called WPS.
1 Kingsoft Writer is developed by a China-based software developer.
