Creating and editing documents To process text information on a computer, general-purpose applications are used - text editors that allow you to create, edit, format, save and print text

Text editors Simple text editors: simple font formatting (Windows Notepad) Word processors: inserting lists and tables, spell checking, etc. (Microsoft Word and Star. Office Writer) Desktop publishing systems: preparation for publishing magazines and newspapers (Adobe Page .Maker)

Creating a document ü Creating a document begins with choosing a template. ü To create documents with a complex structure, use Wizards ü In the process of creating a document in a text editor, the user enters characters from the keyboard

Editing a document is done by copying, moving or deleting selected characters or text fragments. To replace one repeatedly occurring word with another: [Edit – Replace]

Inserting objects into a document The mechanism for embedding and embedding objects (OLE - Object Linking Embedding) allows you to copy and paste objects from one application to another [Insert - Object]

Spelling and syntax checking To check spelling and syntax, special software modules are used, which are included in word processors and editorial publishing systems. The most common typos are corrected by the AutoCorrect function

Text file formats The file format determines the way text is stored in the file. To convert a text file from one format to another, converter programs are used. Text file formats Universal (can be read by most editors) Original (used by individual text editors)

The most common text file formats Text Only (TXT) Rich Text Format Word Document (DOC) Works 4.0 for Windows (WPS) HTML Document (HTM, HTML)

Saving and opening a document in a specific format Enter the command [File – Save As] Give the document a name Select the required format from the list

Selecting page settings Ø There are two possible page orientations: portrait and landscape Ø You can set the required margin sizes on the page and use headers and footers [File – Page Options] Ø Document pages must be numbered [Insert - Page Numbers]

Formatting paragraphs In computer documents, a paragraph is any text ending with a control character (marker) for the end of the paragraph. Entering the end of a paragraph is achieved by pressing (Enter).

Aligning Paragraphs Alignment refers to the position of text relative to page margins. Most often, there are four ways to align paragraphs: Left - the left edge is straight, and the right is torn. Centered—both edges have uneven outlines, but each line of the paragraph is symmetrical relative to the middle. On the right edge - the right edge is smooth, and the left is torn. In width - both edges are even, that is, they are located exactly along the borders of the page. In this case, the last line of the paragraph behaves as if it were left aligned.

Indentations and Spacing Most often, a paragraph begins with a first line indent. The entire paragraph can have indents on the left and right, which are measured from the page margins. To align a paragraph, enter the command [Format – Paragraph]

Lists are used to place various lists in a document. There are different types of lists: Numbered lists, where the list items are accompanied by Arabic or Roman numbers and letters; Bulleted lists, when list items are marked using special bullet characters. It is also possible to create nested lists, and the nested list may differ in type from the main one. Enter the [Format-List] command and in the Lists dialog panel, on the Multi-level tab, select the required type of multi-level list.

Tables A table is an object consisting of rows and columns, at the intersection of which cells are formed. You can use tables to format documents. When you place numbers in a table, you can perform calculations on them. You can convert existing text into a table using the command [Table - Convert to Table] Insert a document into a table: [Table - Insert into Table] Automatically format the appearance of a table: [Table - AutoFormat] Formatting a table manually: [Format - Borders and Fill] Set the exact column width: [Table – Cell height and width]

Formatting Characters Characters are the basic objects that make up a document. Symbols are letters, numbers, spaces, punctuation marks, and special characters. Characters can be formatted. Basic properties of symbols: font, size, style and color.

Hypertext allows you to structure a document by highlighting reference words (hyperlinks) in it. A hyperlink consists of two parts: the link indicator and the address part of the link. A link indicator is an object that stands out visually in a document. The address portion of a hyperlink is the name of the bookmark in the document to which the link points. To create a hyperlink: enter the [Insert-Hyperlink] command.

Computer dictionaries and machine translation systems of texts Computer dictionaries can contain translations of hundreds of thousands of words and phrases, and also provide the user with additional capabilities: § dictionaries can be multilingual § dictionaries can, in addition to the main dictionary of commonly used words, contain dozens of specialized dictionaries in areas of knowledge § dictionaries provide quick search dictionary entries § Dictionaries can be multimedia. Among Russian dictionaries, the Lingvo dictionary, which contains more than 1.2 million words and phrases, the Context electronic dictionary system and the Multilex dictionary should be highlighted.

Machine translation systems translate texts based on formal “knowledge” of the language and the use of dictionaries. PROMT and Socrates are considered the best among Russian machine translation systems.

Optical document recognition systems Optical character recognition systems (Fine. Reader, Cunei. Form) Optical shape recognition systems Handwritten text recognition systems (Apple products)


Text editors

Text editor - a tool for typing and formatting text documents.

Software tools designed for working with texts include:

· electronic notepads;

· text editors;

· word processors;

· editorial and publishing systems;

· translation programs;

· linguistic proofreaders;

· systems that perform intelligent search and intelligent processing of texts posted on networks.


The simplest editors

Allows you to type text, but does not allow you to format it. This can be convenient for preparing program texts in programming languages ​​and markup languages, texts for subsequent transfer to publishing systems with developed text formatting tools.

Example: NotePad


Editors with average capabilities

They allow you to type text and set its basic (but not all) properties, such as text size, its style and font, paragraph indents and alignment. Also, editors with average capabilities sometimes allow you to insert external objects, but these are usually only illustrations.

Example: WordPad for MS Windows


Powerful editors

word processors

They present the full range of possibilities for designing text documents. They contain many other programs that allow you to insert external objects such as drawings, mathematical formulas, graphs, geometric shapes, etc. into the text. They have a convenient graphical interface and basic formatting commands are represented by buttons on the control panels.

Example: MS Word under MS Windows and MacOS


Publishing systems

Special publishing systems are designed for preparing booklets, designing magazines and books. They allow you to prepare them and print them on printers or output complex high-quality documents to phototypesetting machines.


Desktop publishing systems (NIS)

NIS - these are programs designed for professional publishing, allowing for electronic layout of a wide range of basic types of documents.

NIS allow:

  • compose (typeset) text;
  • use all kinds of fonts and printing images;
  • carry out editing at the level of the best word processors;
  • process graphic images;
  • ensure high quality document output

Publishing systems

Second view: are more suitable for preparing voluminous documents, such as books.

Example: Ventura Publisher (Corel Ventura) – controls menus and can read text prepared using other text editors (for example, Microsoft Word), while preserving the formatting settings specified by those editors.

First view: very convenient for preparing small materials with illustrations, graphs, diagrams, various fonts in the text (for example, newspapers, small magazines).

Example: Aldus Page Maker.


It is a desktop publishing system developed by Microsoft . This is an entry level application, different from Microsoft Office Word because the emphasis is on designing the page layout, rather than on designing and checking the text.

The first version of the package was developed in 1991.
