Data entry " with the kilometer "To seize a new document, it is necessary to start by launching AbiWord as considering previously. AbiWord then presents a virgin page on which we can start to seize a document. Initially it is necessary to be satisfied to access the text in a rough way without being concerned with its working, of its appearance (i.e., to carry out the data entry " with the kilometer "). It is enough for that to type with the keyboard the letters which make the document and they are automatically inserted into the place where is the cursor of insertion.

To introduce a new paragraph, it is simply enough to press on the " Entered " key. However, the " Entered " key is only used to introduce a new paragraph and must never be used to introduce a simple rupture of line.

If no suggestion is made by AbiWord, that means that AbiWord did not find any word similar in its dictionary. It should then be checked if this word is well spelled.
