The microcomputer has created several important changes in the application of word processors; today, word processing applications software is not only used on dedicated word processors and microcomputers but has been transported to the miniframe and mainframe environments. This edition addresses these changes by providing the broader conceptual base necessary to applying spreadsheets, graphics, communications, and other software that has expanded word processing capabilities. This edition includes discussions on the new types of equipment, and an in-depth treatment of all applications within the context of daily tasks and the office environment.
