To start MS Word: After opening the Computer, you will find the Start button on the taskbar, then you will click on the Programs, and you will then get the application to work.
From Programs, you will find a list of programs, then click MS Word, and then you will go to the MS Word application package to work.
After opening Word, you will find a default settings screen. In this screen, you will set the zoom and then set the font style and font size. You can set with the help of the Standard toolbar, or for changing the size of the font, you can press Ctrl +] (for increasing one font size) and Ctrl +[ ( for decreasing one font size).
If you find that there is no standard toolbar on the screen, then you have to set the toolbar as follows.& Click View menu& Click toolbars & Then click Standard Toolbar, or, in case of customising any kind of toolbar, you can bring/customise the toolbar from the view menu in this way. Suppose that any item of the standard toolbar or formatting toolbar is missing from the screen, you can bring that item back by following the rules.
