The word processor has become an integral tool for the many people who rely on computers on a daily basis. As such it has a wide and varied user base and must cater for a very diverse user group. Due to the heavy reliance on the word processor it is essential that it delivers pleasurable and efficient interaction to its users. This book focuses on furthering the improvement of the word processor usability. Specifically, it concentrates on the impact of graphics, text and language on the usability of a word processor. Through comparative user testing, using the medium of a scaled-down word processor application which can accommodate interchangeable interfaces and easy administration of preset tasks, these facets are tested and a number of recommendations concerning the usability of a word processor are proposed based on both statistical analysis and observation of user interaction. The informative text should be useful to Human-Computer Interaction specialists or anyone interested in the impact of language and icons on the use of software applications.
