Answer 2_11_5

State three advantages to a user of a WYSIWYG word-processor, explaining each advantage.

WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) is the current norm for word-processors:

• You can see the formatting, so that you can tell how the document will look.  In old word processors, you had to put embed commands, and you had to imagine what the document looked like;
• You can use several different views, so that you can see exactly what the document will look like without the need to print it out;
• You can do spelling and grammar checks.
• You can use preformed templates, such as a company letter-head.
