TEXT PROCESSING
(REVIEW OF IT BASICS)

2. TEXT PROCESSING
 Working with plain text
 The most basic text format is plain text (.txt
suffix)
 .txt does not allow for additional text formatting,
such as italics, bold, or color, etc.
 .txt is very versatile, and plain text files can be
opened on virtually any PC.

3. TEXT PROCESSING
 Character encoding
 With the plain text we must be careful about
correct coding. Text encoding assignees
numbers to characters through the character
sets. It can vary in different languages.
 For creating and editing a plain text Windows
has a application called Notepad (Start Menu ->
Programs -> Accessories -> Notepad).

4. TEXT PROCESSING
 Character encoding
 When saving file in plain text format, choose the
encoding as UTF-8 (see picture)
 Saving plain text with encoding UTF-8 ensures that all
special, country-specific characters will display correctly.
