-Opening an existing document
Word enables you to open existing files in one of 3 forms: as an original document, as a copy of a
document, or as a read-only document.
Clicking the Open command in the File tab produces the Open dialog box. You can use commands
in the Open dialog box to open existing documents from target locations such as a USB flash drive,
hard drive, network location, desktop, CD, DVD, or portable device.
- Changing document views
The View tab on the Ribbon has groups of commands for Document Views, Show, Zoom,
Window, and Macros.
Word has 5 Document View options
Print Layout: Is the default view. It displays the document as it will look when
printed and enables you to use the Ribbon to create and edit your document.
Full Screen Reading : View is made for reading documents onscreen. Options are
available for customizing this view.
Web Layout: View shows how the document would look as a Web page.
Outline: View displays the document as an outline and offers an outline tab with
commands for creating and editing outlines.

pictures, and other objects are hidden in this view.

that can help you create, edit, and navigate your document. Rulers are measuring
tools to align text, graphics, and other elements used within a document.
Gridlines provide a grid of vertical and horizontal lines that help you align graphics
and other objects in your documents.

command in the Show group. The navigation pane has 3 tabs. The first tab, Browse
Headinds in your document, displays the structure of your document by levels
based on the document’s heading. The second tab, Browse Pages in your
