Entering Text and Editing!

Entering Text!

To enter text in a new document, simply type. The insertion point, a blink-
ing vertical bar, marks where the next characters appear as you type. The
insertion point also marks where pasted text or a graphic is inserted.!

To change where you want to type, simply click where you want to position
the insertion point. !

Note: You can position the insertion point only to the left or right of an existing character. As such, you may need to repeatedly press
the Return or Enter key to move the insertion point to a location that doesn’t already contain text."

You can also move the insertion point one character to the left or right by pressing the left or right arrow key. Pressing the
up arrow key moves the insertion point to the line above. Pressing the down arrow key moves it to the line below.!

Word Wrap!

As you type, words automatically flow, or “break”, to the next line when you reach the right margin marker. This is called
word wrap.!
