application location, it still has its drawbacks. One of them is
due to the presence of too many options. A novice user may feel
overwhelmed with the number of features that can be executed
through this software.Purpose

document i.e. write any type of document such as assignments,
quizzes, reports, etc. This does not mean that you can only write
something on the word. You can also use tools to make your
document look better such as using different layouts, different
shapes, adding pictures and tables, etc. Thus, word lets you
make a document and edit it. There are no critical bugs and the
defect rate of MS Word is zero. The learning time for an
average user is 30 to 60 minutes. Scope
The project aims to efficiently document your need for both,
your professional or personal life. The focus of this application
location is to provide help for the user to inscribe a document in
a multitude of formats. This will provide more options and
