Comparisons between desktop publishing and world processing software ?(easy language )
Answers
A word processor like Microsoft Word is basically an electronic typewriter application with the option of editing content whenever needed. Word processing allows documents to be typed for printing or viewing electronically and has some extra features like spell checking, formatting and lists. These extra features give the user more document control than that of simple text editors. The general idea for any word processing application is to be able to edit and format the final document.
Desktop publishing is as good as having a mini-printing press within a personal computer. Publishing software helps design the page layout for each document. Tools in desktop publishing applications can help the user to configure the layout, where things are printed in the final design and how things are printed. Desktop publishing tools are simple to understand and use, plus with having the absolute layout control it is distinguished from word processing applications.
