1. Microsoft word


Microsoft Word is a text processing application that you can use to create text documents. It allows the user to configure the attributes of a document, such as layout and the styles of content, and to add their content in a variety of ways and formats.

Word is typically used to create academic documents like essays, dissertations, and theses, because it allows for more complex formatting.

When opening Microsoft Word for the first time the Start Screen will appear. Microsoft Word will give you several options when starting a presentation. You can open an existing document, choose a document template, or start from scratch by choosing blank document.
