Special functions

Find/Replace

Accessible via the "Magnifying Glass" button on the button bar, this function displays a field in which the search term is entered. To the right of this field, buttons allow you to delete the search term, update the search, or search for the previous or next occurrence of the search term.

To the left of the field, the cogwheel icon is a pop-up menu giving the choice between pure search or Find/Replace, and offers different search modes: search for a character string (Contains, Begins with, Ends with) or a whole word, case-sensitive search (uppercase-lowercase) or diacritical search (accented).

Printer

The printer icon in the button bar gives access to the print format, the print preview and the print itself.

Export

The document created with the word processor can be exported to disk in various formats: Office Maker, PDF, Microsoft Word or Web Page.

Import

A document on disk can be imported, whether in Office Maker or Microsoft Word (.docx) format. Please note, however, that certain features of a Word document cannot be retrieved. It is therefore advisable to check the layout of an imported Word document.
