Cover of Elementary Exercises in Word Processing
"Elementary Exercises in Word Processing: Student's Book" is the companion text to "Elementary Exercises in Word Processing: Teacher's Book". The main objective of the books is to provide students with practice material on basic word processing functions. They are particularly useful for those people studying for Stage 1 Word Processing examinations such as RSA or Pitman, or where word processing is taught as part of a course. It is assumed that students have already mastered the keyboard. The books also aim to show students the usefulness and versatility of the printer and to develop an economy of stationery. Students are instructed to print documents in either elite or pica type to enable them to recognize the difference in pitch. The chapters in both books have been structured systematically to enable the student to learn gradually. Also, a set of numbered "help points" are given at the beginning of each book. These are intended to remind readers of current typewriting conventions and to provide other useful guidelines.

Cover of Intermediate Exercises in Word Processing
This is a book of exercises designed to consolidate and extend the skills of the word processor operator and to provide practice in the use of the more complex functions of the word processor. Within each chapter the exercises are graded in difficulty. The book does not teach how to operate a word processor; this is achieved by teacher guidance and with reference to manufacturers' machine manuals. It is hoped that students studying for RSA Intermediate/Advanced word processing examinations and Pitman Intermediate examinations will find this book of benefit, as well as operators who are keen to expand their knowledge and skills of word processing. The content of the exercises is largely business orientated and it is hoped that the operator will extend their general knowledge of the business environment. At the beginning of the book there is a list of help points which provide revision and guidelines on acceptable layout and techinques.
