Step
1:
|
- Using Microsoft Word
or Word Perfect, write your essay, proofread and edit it, and save it on
your diskette. Saving files as .rtf files (rich text format) is
the safest format to save in because almost all computers have some
program that will read .rtf files.
When you click on “Save as,” you will find the .rtf option by
dropping down the option “save files as type” (or some phrase like that)
and then choosing “.rtf”, or it might say “rich text format. This will work in either
WordPerfect of MSWord. It
also works with MSWorks.
