Question 01
Visit a web site and print out a page. Visit the same page on another computer (preferably on another operating system), and print out the same page.
Compare the pages. Are the printouts different? Why?
    ·         No. when considering Windows 8 OS and Android 4.4 OS, they use different platforms, different text designs and resolutions. When viewed in android, the website takes a dynamic view while viewing from Microsoft windows 8 gives a more landscape view.

  •  Different resolutions set by each operating system. If you have XP on several computers with the same resolution and text size adjustment on Internet Explorer, the printout will be exact. Vista comes in 32 and 64 bit with a slight change in resolution to allow it to work. The printout from Vista with the exact settings as XP will be slightly larger. 



Question 02
From three different publications, select a printed page. Circle the different blocks of text. Characterize the types of text used in each block by providing for each page:
  •  Publication name and page number.
  •  Which blocks are headlines? What type of font is used? Is it bold? serif? Characterize the text.  How is it spaced?
  •  Which blocks are body texts? What type of font is used? Is it bold? serif? Characterize the text. How is it spaced?



Question 03
Access a computer. Identify two programs that allow you to manipulate text. Write some text in varied styles and fonts. Print the results. For each, list:
  •    The program’s name.
  •   The ways in which that program allows you to change text. Can you easily change the font
  •  The color? The style? The spacing?


Notepad
A notepad program provide navigation format button to choose a font format to change the font. This is a simple program which can’t change the color of the font and font spacing but can easily change into a different type of font, font style (Regular, Bold, Italic) and size of font with limited choice available and the change of font only can be viewed on a notepad itself.
