What is Writer?

Writer is the word processor component of OpenOffice.org (OOo). It provides the

usual features of a word processor: enter and edit text, spelling check, thesaurus,

hyphenation, autocorrect, find and replace, automatic generation of tables of

contents and indexes, mail merge, and others.

In addition, Writer provides these important features:

• Templates and styles

• Page-layout methods, including frames, columns, and tables

• Embedding or linking of graphics, spreadsheets, and other objects

• Built-in drawing tools

• Master documents—to group a collection of documents into a single document

• Change tracking during revisions

• Database integration, including a bibliography database

• Export to PDF, including bookmarks

• And many more

Styles are central to using Writer. Using styles, you can easily format your document

consistently and change the format with minimal effort. A style is a named set of

formatting options. Writer defines several types of styles, for different types of

elements: characters, paragraphs, pages, frames, and lists. Often, you are using

styles whether you realize it or not. The use of styles is described in more detail in

Chapter 6 (Introduction to Styles) and Chapter 7 (Working with Styles).

The other features of Writer listed above are covered in other chapters of this guide.
