Chapter 2

AlphaWord is a full-featured word processor that lets you create, format

(including setting fonts, justification, line spacing, margins), and edit

documents. These documents can then be printed or transferred to a com-

puter via a USB cable or a wireless connection.This chapter will cover

the fundamentals of AlphaWord.

Files 1-8

In AlphaWord you are always in one of eight work spaces that

you can instantly access using their corresponding file keys

(F1-F8). You can use the work spaces for your work in progress

areas. When you press one of the file keys in AlphaWord, the

associated file immediately opens. This eliminates having to

scroll through a long list of files to find the one you want to

open. If there is no file associated with the file key you pressed,

then a new file is created.

Tip: To replace a file associated with a work space with a differ-

ent file, press a file key to go to the work space, then select

File New for a new file or File Open for an existing file.
