1. Text formatting is about changing the look of text.  Which of the following is not a type of text formatting?

Explanation

Text formatting refers to the various ways in which the appearance of text can be altered. Bold, underline, and italic are all examples of text formatting options that can be used to emphasize or highlight certain words or phrases. However, a macro is not a type of text formatting. A macro is a sequence of instructions or commands that can be recorded and executed to automate repetitive tasks in software applications. Macros are not directly related to changing the appearance or formatting of text.

About This Quiz
IT Software - Word Processing - Quiz


This is a quiz about popular IT software. This quiz is suitable for older children and adult learners.

2. Which of the following can Microsoft Word not do?

Explanation

Microsoft Word is primarily a word processing software used for creating and editing documents. While it does have some basic calculation features like simple formulas and tables, it is not designed to carry out complex or difficult calculations like a spreadsheet program such as Microsoft Excel. Therefore, the correct answer is "Carry out difficult calculations".

Submit
3. You have created a document and now wish to replace every occurence of the word "test" with "examination", which facility should you use?

Explanation

To replace every occurrence of the word "test" with "examination" in a document, you should use the "Find and Replace" facility. This feature allows you to search for a specific word or phrase (in this case, "test") and replace it with another word or phrase (in this case, "examination") throughout the entire document. It saves time and effort by automatically replacing all instances of the word without having to manually edit each occurrence.

Submit
4. Which of the following is not a type of text alignment?

Explanation

The options given are all types of text alignment except for "Midpoint". Right alignment aligns text to the right margin, left alignment aligns text to the left margin, and justified alignment aligns text to both the left and right margins. However, "Midpoint" is not a recognized type of text alignment.

Submit
5. Which of the following is not a popular font?

Explanation

Shadow is not a popular font because it is not commonly used or recognized in the design and typography industry. Fonts like Arial, Times New Roman, and Comic Sans MS are well-known and widely used in various applications such as print, web, and graphic design. Shadow, on the other hand, is not as commonly used and is not considered a popular or widely recognized font choice.

Submit
6. You have finished typing your letter and decide to check for spelling and grammar errors.  The spelling and grammar facility flags up that Alloa in your address is not in the dictionary, what is the best course of action?

Explanation

The best course of action is to add "Alloa" to the dictionary so that it is recognized as a correctly spelled word in future spelling and grammar checks. This will prevent the word from being flagged as a spelling error again.

Submit
7. In Microsoft Word, where would you find the option to change page orientation from landscape to portrait?

Explanation

In Microsoft Word, the option to change page orientation from landscape to portrait can be found in the "Page Setup" menu. This menu allows users to customize various layout settings for their document, including page size, margins, and orientation. By selecting the "Page Setup" option, users can easily switch between landscape and portrait orientations to suit their specific needs.

Submit
8. You have been asked to create a report of no more than 800 words for your college course using Microsoft Word, is there an easy way to work out how many words you have typed?

Explanation

The correct answer is "Yes, use word count to calculate how many words you have typed". In Microsoft Word, there is a feature called "Word Count" that allows users to easily determine the number of words they have typed in a document. This feature can be accessed through the "Review" tab in the toolbar, and it provides an accurate count of the total number of words in the document, excluding any headers, footers, or text boxes. This is a useful tool for meeting the word count requirements of a report or any other written assignment.
