This episode is called “Formatting Text.” It’s a dialogue between Chad and Pamela that is going to be using a lot of vocabulary that you might need when talking about preparing a formal document on a word processing program such as Microsoft Word. Let’s get started.
Chad: Okay, this report is finally finished.
Pamela: Oh, not quite. I’m still working on the formatting.
Chad: We used the standard formatting for this type of report. I don’t think we should play around with the text.
Pamela: Standard is boring. I want our report to be special.
