G DOCS VS WORD HOW TO

If you make an error, simply right click on the misspelled word and select “Always correct to…” This will edit the misspelled word every time you type it in your Doc. Luckily, autocorrect is extremely simple to find and use in Google Docs. Word 2013 eliminated autocorrect from the spelling error context menu, which means when you have a typo, you can no longer right click on the typo and hit autocorrect to remedy the error. This cuts down on several steps like searching for an image in a browser, saving it to your desktop and then inserting it into your Word document. Google even allows you to search for images (through Google image search, LIFE or stock images) and insert those directly into your document. You can upload images from your desktop or insert images directly from Google Drive. To insert an image into a Google Doc, simply select ‘Insert’ from the top navigation, then choose ‘Image.’ From here you have several options.

While Google Docs is no expert here – you have two options – format ‘in line with text’ or ‘fixed position’ – the process of inserting an image is extremely robust. Word 2013, like other versions, has problems with image formatting.

Let’s examine each of the 10 issues discussed in the article and how Google Docs can remedy or completely avoid them altogether. While the authors gave some great information and provided a few handy work arounds, the cure to us seems pretty simple – get rid of Word altogether and trade up to Google Docs.
