Although
WordPad is capable of much more than Microsoft's Notepad, it is not as advanced
as Microsoft Word. However, it provides you with many additional features,
such as the ability to edit images and the format of text.
The
picture below shows an example of Microsoft WordPad
Similar
to other word processing applications, WordPad includes programs and word
processing engines. This program has Title Bar, Menu Bar, Toolbar, Status
Bar, Format Bar, Document Ruler and Selection Bar.
The
.RTF extension is used by both WordPad and Microsoft Word. With each
release, Microsoft has added more file formats such as .txt, .doc and .odt to
WordPad.
WordPad
is preferred over notepad for making documents when it comes to
formatting. It can handle both formatted and simple text. Its
features are simple as compared to Microsoft Word and can be considered as an
excellent editor and mini viewer for Word document.
It
is capable of font, character level formatting, margins, and
modifications. In this, you can insert sound files, charts and graphics in
the document. Hypertext links can also be added and a zoom in and zoom out
feature is also available.
However,
WordPad is not considered a full-featured word processor. It does not have
intermediate features like spell check or grammar check unlike Microsoft
Word. WordPad is not recommended for documents that have many structured
elements. It is also not recommended for configuration files
or HTML editing. It
is slower to load than notepad but has more speed than other word processors of
office suites.
