Formatting a document

Before you print your document,

you can choose how you want it to look on paper. This is called format­ting. Some word-processing pro­grams ask you to do this before you start writing. Others wait until you are ready to print your document and then give you a list of choices. The instructions that you use to tell the computer how to print your document are called formatting commands.

What are some of the choices that you have for formatting text? Most word-processing programs allow you to adjust the line spacing on your document. That means that you can select the amount of empty space between printed lines. You can print your document using either single-spaced or double spaced text.

Single-spaced text looks like the type that you are reading now.

Double-spaced text looks like the type that you are reading now.

Some programs allow you to print your document using triple-spaced text as well. You can also choose how much of a margin you want be­tween your writing and the edges of the paper.

Some word-processing programs have a formatting command that prints justified lines. Justified lines form straight margins on both sides of this paper. For example, the text in this book is justified, but the text in this paragraph is not justified.

PRINTING A DOCUMENT

Your word processor and printer work together to carry out formatting commands. Some printers are capable of performing more formatting functions than others, For example, your word-processing program may allow you to print italic type, but if your printer can't produce italic type, the command is useless. The reverse is also true. A printer can't produce italic type if it's hooked up to word-processing program that won't allow it.
