How to Use Open Office Word Processor

1. Launch the Open Office word processor from your 'Start' menu or the desktop icon. Once you do this, it will automatically open a brand new blank document for you to start working with. Since this is a new document, it will have 'Untititled1' listed at the top of the screen. This will change once you have saved the file with a name.
2. Format the page for the Open Office word processor by clicking onto the 'Format' menu option. Once the drop-down menu appears, select 'Page' and a popup window will appear. Click the 'Page' tab to access the features for formatting your page. It will allow you to change the page orientation, margins and a few other details.
3. Enter your desired data into the Open Office word processor. It can be used for creating reports, lists or typing letters. When typing into the word processor, you can turn on the 'Autocorrect' feature that will instantly fix typos or other mistakes. Just simply click the 'Tools' menu, 'Autocorrect' and then choose a tab. To activate this feature, click the box next to it and a check will appear.
4. Select the 'Options' tab if you would like to have the first letter of every sentence capitalized or activate URL recognition. 'Word Completion' is another feature that can be activated for the Open Office word processor. Type the first few letters of a word and it will automatically be filled in for you. If you would rather not have this feature active when working on a document, then make sure there is no check in the box next to it.
