Getting to know Word 2013

Word 2013 is similar to Word 2010. If you've previously used Word 2010, then Word 2013 should
feel familiar. But if you are new to Word or have more experience with older versions, you should
first take some time to become familiar with the Word 2013 interface.

The Word interface

When you open Word 2013 for the first time, the Word Start Screen will appear. From here, you'll
be able to create a new document, choose a template, or access your recently edited
documents.
 From the Word Start Screen, locate and select Blank document to access the
Word interface.

Working with the Word environment

If you've previously used Word 2010 or 2007, then Word 2013 should feel familiar. It continues to
use features like the Ribbon and the Quick Access toolbar—where you will find commands to
perform common tasks in Word—as well as Backstage view.

The Ribbon

RO5_TVE (ICF) _Grade 8_Q1_LP 1_Pg.5

The Ribbon contains multiple tabs, each with several groups of commands. You will use these
tabs to perform the most common tasks in Word.

each tab on the Ribbon.

takes up too much screen space.

Options arrow in the upper-right
corner of the Ribbon.
