2.​ Compare a text editor with a word processor.​

formatting and additional tools.​

3.​ Briefly describe the default view.​


The default view in most word processors is the Print Layout, which shows how the
document will look when printed.
4.​ Explain the utility of different views in Writer.​
OpenOffice Writer offers multiple views to help users work efficiently depending on their
needs. The Print Layout view shows how the document will appear on paper, including
margins, headers, and footers. The Web Layout view removes page breaks and shows
the document as a continuous page, useful for documents intended to be shared online.
These views help in editing, reviewing, and formatting documents for different outputs.
5.​ Differentiate between Print Layout and Web Layout view.

​
In Print Layout view, the document appears exactly as it will be printed, showing page
breaks, paper size, and layout elements like headers and footers. This is useful for
preparing documents for printing. In contrast, Web Layout view displays the document
as a single continuous page without page breaks, which is helpful when creating content
for digital or web-based use, such as blogs or online articles.
