It's about unlearning typewriter habits, like double spaces after a  
period, necessary with monospaced fonts, but entirely unneccessary  
with propoortional 'typesetting' fonts. Like, not using a tab to  
indent the first line of your paragraph, or actually using the tabs  
to align table items. Use styles to format your paragraphs rather  
than spaces or tabs. It's about learning the edit and file ,  
menus..... copy, paste etc. real basic stuff.
