Working with the Word environment
Like other recent versions, Word 2016 continues to use features like the Ribbon and
the Quick Access Toolbar—where you will find commands to perform common tasks in
Word—as well as Backstage view.
The Ribbon
Word uses a tabbed Ribbon
system instead of traditional menus.
The Ribbon contains multiple tabs, which
you can find near the top of the Word
window.
5
Each tab contains several groups of
related commands. For example, the
Font group on the Home tab contains
commands for formatting text in your
document.
Some groups also have a small arrow in
the bottom-right corner that you can click
for even more options.
Showing and hiding the Ribbon
If you find that the Ribbon takes up
too much screen space, you can hide it. To
do this, click the Ribbon Display
Options arrow in the upper-right corner of
the Ribbon, then select the desired option
from the drop-down menu:
⮚ Auto-hide Ribbon:
Auto-hide displays your document in full-screen mode and completely hides the
Ribbon from view. To show the Ribbon, click the Expand Ribbon command at the top of
screen.
6
⮚ Show Tabs:
This option hides all command groups when they're not in use, but tabs will remain
visible. To show the Ribbon, simply click a tab.
⮚ Show Tabs and Commands:
This option maximizes the Ribbon. All of the tabs and commands will be visible. This
option is selected by default when you open Word for the first time.
If you're having trouble finding command
you want, the Tell Me feature can help. It
works just like a regular search bar: Type
what you're looking for, and a list of options
will appear. You can then use the command
directly from the menu without having to find
it on the Ribbon.
The Quick Access Toolbar
Located just above the Ribbon, the Quick Access Toolbar lets you access common
commands no matter which tab is selected. By default, it shows the Save, Undo,
and Redo commands, but you can add other commands depending on your needs.
To add commands to the Quick Access Toolbar:
1. Click the drop-down arrow to
the right of the Quick Access
Toolbar.
7
2. Select the command you
want to add from the menu.
3. The command will be added

to adjust your document with precision. If you want, you can hide the Ruler to create more
screen space.
To show or hide the Ruler:
1. Click the View tab.

2. Click the checkbox next to Ruler to show or hide the Ruler.
Backstage view
-gives you various options for
saving, opening a file, printing, and
sharing your document. To access
Backstage view, click the File tab

Document views and zooming
Word has a variety of viewing options that change how your document is displayed. You
can choose to view your document in Read Mode, Print Layout, or Web Layout. These
views can be useful for various tasks, especially if you're planning to print the document. You
can also zoom in and out to make your document easier to read.
Read Mode:
This view opens the
document to a full screen. This
view is great for reading large
amounts of text or simply
reviewing your work.
9
Print Layout:
This is the default
document view in Word. It shows
what the document will look like
on the printed page
Web Layout:
This view displays the
document as a webpage, which
can be helpful if you're using
Word to publish content online.
Switching document views
Switching between different document views is easy. Just locate and select the
desired document view command in the bottom-right corner of the Word window
Zooming in and out
To zoom in or out, click and drag
the zoom control slider in the bottom-
right corner of the Word window. You can
also select the + or - commands to zoom
in or out by smaller increments. The
number next to the slider displays the
current zoom percentage, also called
the zoom level.

Microsoft Word is a word processing tool for creating different types of documents
that are used in work and school environments. The appearance of Microsoft Word 2016 is
similar to Word 2010 and Word 2013, but with more enhanced features. It contains a
customized Office Background that appears above the Ribbon, live access to your OneDrive
account, an option to work in Read Mode, tab text that appears blue when active, a blue
background for the status bar, and many more exciting new features. When you first launch
Word, it opens with the Recent screen displayed. This screen enables you to create a new
blank document or a document from a template. And when you exit a document and return
later, Word 2016 resumes where you left off.
Microsoft has a cloud-based storage space known as OneDrive. Microsoft provides
users with free online storage space, enabling you to manage your documents from
anywhere and share them with anyone. Before you can use OneDrive, however, you must
create a Microsoft account profile. Once you create your account, you will find it easy to
manage and share your documents. Windows 10 works seamlessly with Office 2016. When
you are logged on to your Microsoft account, the account name appears in the upper-right
corner of each Office 2016 application and you have access to the files you have stored in
11
your OneDrive space. This makes it easy for you to continue working on your documents at
any computer and reminds you where you left off. To begin using Word 2016, locate the Word
icon and click it using the left mouse button or, if you are using a touch-screen monitor, tap
the icon. When Word is launched, the program opens with the Word 2016. On the left side of
the screen under Recent, you see a list of documents that have been accessed recently. The
right window pane displays a blank document page and several templates to create
customized documents.
