Microsoft Word 2013 is a word-processing program that is used to create professional-looking
documents such as reports, resumes, letters, memos, and newsletters. It includes many powerful
tools that can be used to easily create and edit documents, and collaborate with others. This
handout provides an overview of the Word 2013 user interface and covers how to perform basic
tasks such as starting and exiting the program; creating, saving, opening, closing, editing,
formatting, and printing documents; applying styles; and getting help.
To start Word 2013 from the Start menu:
Click the Start button, click All Programs, click Microsoft 1. Office 2013, and then click
Word 2013. The Start screen appears (see Figure 1).
2. In the right pane, click Blank document. A new, blank document opens in the program
window.
Overview of the User Interface
All the Microsoft Office 2013 programs share a common user interface so you can apply basic
techniques that you learn in one program to other programs. The Word 2013 program window is
easy to navigate and simple to use (see Figure 2 and Table 1).
Title Bar
Appears at the top of the program window and displays the name of the
document and the program. The buttons on the right side of the Title bar are
used to get help; change the display of the Ribbon; and minimize, restore,
maximize, and close the program window.
Quick Access toolbar
Appears on the left side of the Title bar and contains frequently used
commands that are independent of the tab displayed on the Ribbon.

and consists of a set of tabs, each of which contains groups of related
commands.

about the document (number of pages, number of words, etc.). The tools on
the right side of the Status bar can be used to display the document in a
variety of views and to change the zoom level.
