This extensive guide teaches you different ways to get help with WordPad in Windows 10. It is a comprehensive WordPad guide with everything you need to know about WordPad in Windows 10.
In the first Windows 10 WordPad help topic, I will show you different ways to open WordPad in Windows 10.
Type WordPad in the Windows 10 search box (bottom left of the Taskbar). Then, from the search results, click WordPad App.
You can also open WordPad from Start Menu. Here are the steps:
1. Left-click the Start Menu.
This is the final method in this section. You can also open WordPad via Run. Here are the steps:
Windows 10 users also want to get help with opening a WordPad document.
Within WordPad, you can open a blank, empty WordPad document. Moreover, you can also open an existing WordPad document.
The first step to open a new or an existing WordPad document is to click the File tab on the WordPad menu.
Then, from the displayed options, – to open a new document, click New. When you click New, if you have not saved the current document, WordPad will prompt you to save it.
Additionally, from the File menu, to open and existing WordPad document, click Open.
Then, on the WordPad Open dialogue box, navigate to the folder with the document you want to open and select the document. Then, at the bottom right of the dialogue box, click Open.
You can open Microsoft Word documents in WordPad. However, some features of the Word document will not be available.
Saving a WordPad document is another important help topic required by Windows 10 users.
The first sub-section of this Windows 10 WordPad help section covers steps to save a WordPad document with the standard WordPad formats.
In the second sub-section, I will teach you how to save a WordPad document as PDF.
You can save WordPad in diffident standard formats. Follow the steps below to save a WordPad document in the Standard formats.
In the next sub-section, I will explain the available forts.
If this is the first time you are saving a new WordPad document, WordPad will display the Save As dialogue box. However, if you previously saved the file with a file name, when you click Save, recent changes made to the document will be saved.
As you can see from the last screenshot when you hover over the “Save As” option, it displays additional file format options. You can choose to save the document with one of the listed WordPad file formats.
If this is the first time you are saving the WordPad document, or you selected the Save As option, WordPad will display the Save As dialogue box. To save the file, enter a name for the file in the File Name field. Then, click Save.
In the last sub-section, I hinted that the “Save As” option, displays additional file format options. In this sub-section of our Windows 10 WordPad help guide, I will explain each file format and when you may need to use them.
This is the first option displayed in the Save As option in WordPad.
A Rich Text File (.rtf) is a cross-platform document file format developed by Microsoft around 1987. While the RTF file format is not as robust as a Microsoft Word File format, it is far more advanced than the text file format (notepad).
Unlike the standard text files – which can only store plain texts, Rich Text Files support additional font styles, formatting, and can also save images. To read more about RTFs, read What Is an RTF File (And How Do I Open One)?
The next file format available in the WordPad “Save As” menu is Office Open XML Document. This is an XML-based, zipped file format developed by Microsoft.
This file format uses zip compression technology to store documents. Starting from Office 2007, Microsoft standardized all its office applications to use XML-based file formats.
This change means that the file extensions of Microsoft Office documents changed from the old file formats to the .docx, .xlsx, and .pptx – for Word, Excel, and PowerPoint respectively.
To read more about Office Open XML Document, see Open XML Formats and file name extensions. You may also benefit from this Wikipedia page – Office Open XML.
If you are wondering how these explanations fit into Windows 10 WordPad, here is how: if you want your WordPad document to be compatible with the new Microsoft Office file format, save the WordPad document as an Office Open XML Document.
This is yet another WordPad file format option. Like the Office Open XML file format, OpenDocument Text formats are compressed XML-based file format.
Office Open XML file format was developed by the Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards. It is the default file format for documents in most Linux distributions.
Furthermore, ODF files are compatible with OpenOffice.org and LibreOffice files. This means that if you want your Windows 10 WordPad document to be compatible with OpenOffice files, save the document as an OpenDocument Text file format.
This is the last file format supported by WordPad. The Plain text document format is a normal notepad text file format.
When you select this WordPad “Save As” option, the file is saved as a text file. Additionally, all formatting and line breaks are removed.
To save a WordPad document as a PDF document, print the document and select Microsoft Print to PDF as your printer. Here are the steps to save a Windows 10 WordPad document as PDF:
This section of the Windows 10 WordPad help guide has 2 sub-sections.
The first sub-section teaches you how to how to change WordPad print Page Setup. Additionally, in the second section, you will learn how to print in WordPad.
Follow the steps below to change WordPad print paper size, orientation or margins:
If the Paper Source is greyed out, it means that the selected printer is not an actual printer. To learn how to change the printer, see the next sub-section.
Once you have adjusted the WordPad print setup, follow the steps below to print:
On the top left of the Windows 10 WordPad, click File. Then, from the displayed File menu options, hover over Print. When you hover over Print, it displays 3 options. See below this image for the explanation of each option.
When you hover over Print in the File menu, the first option displayed is Print. When you select this option, the Print dialogue box will be displayed.
You can also display the Print dialogue box shown below by presing the Ctrl and P keys on your keyboard, simultaneously. This Windows 10 WordPad help guide has a section dedicated to WordPad shortcuts.
The Print dialogue offers you the options to select the printer you want to print to. Moreover, this dialogue box also allows you to set the printer preferences, or decide which WordPad document pages to print.
Furthermore, you can also set the number of copies to print.
After selecting your print options, at the bottom left of the Print dialogue box, click Print.
The next option displayed when you click File and hover over Print is Quick print. This option does exactly what its name says-it by-passes the Print dialogue box and sends your WordPad document to straight to your default printer.
This is a brilliant option if you want o print your WordPad document quickly. However, it will only work if you have set up a default printer in Windows 10.
The Print preview option is the last option displayed when you click File and hover over Print. Once again, the name tells the story – when you click this option, a preview of your WordPad document will be displayed.
The Print preview screen has four sections on the menu. The menu sections are highlighted in the screenshot below. Beneath the screenshot, I have explained what you can do in each section.
The Print section has 2 options – Print and Page setup. When you click Print, the Print dialogue box is displayed – see the second screenshot below.
As you probably expect, when you click Page setup, it will be displayed.
Back to the Print preview menu, the Zoom menu option allows you to either view One page or Two pages.
Moving on, you can use the Preview menu to preview each page. Finally, when you are done, you can close Windows 10 WordPad preview screen by clicking Close Print preview.
This section of our Windows 10 WordPad help covers two methods to send email a WordPad document.
The documents used for the demo in this section are displaying as Microsoft Word documents, instead of WordPad documents because I set the default app that opens the documents as Microsoft Word – not WordPad. If you do not have Microsoft Word, your documents will likely be displayed as WordPad documents.
The fastest way to send a WordPad document is to click File, then select Send in email. WordPad will open the default email client on your Windows 10 PC and attach the document – see the second screenshot below.
I use Microsoft Outlook, so WordPad opened Outlook and attached the document. Once the document is attached to your email client, enter the email you want to send the document to. Then, enter a subject (optional) and send the document.
This method works if you use Outlook. Follow the steps below to send a WordPad document by copy and paste method:
Starting from this section of the Windows 10 WordPad help – and for the next four sections – I will walk you through the features in the WordPad Home tab.
In this section, though I will focus on the Clipboard section of the Home tab. In the next two sub-sections, I will teach you how to Cut, Copy, Paste, and Paste Special.
To cut or copy in WordPad, follow the steps below:
You can also Cut in WordPad by selecting the text you want to cut, then pressing Ctrl and X keys simultaneously. Additionally, you can copy the text by pressing Ctrl and C keys simultaneously.
When you cut or copy a text – as explained in the last sub-section – to paste the text in WordPad, press Ctrl and P keys simultaneously. However, you can also paste by clicking Past.
When you click Paste or paste with Ctrl + P keys, WordPad will paste the text with the source formating. However, to select a paste formatting option, click the Paste drop-down. Then, select Paste special.
Finally, on the Paste special pop-up window, select your “Paste As” option. Then click OK.
As highlighted in the screenshot below, when you select a “Paste As” option, WordPad offers some explanation at the bottom of the Paste special pop-up window.
Without any doubt, a number of Windows 10 users will need help with managing WordPad fonts. After all, using fonts is essential knowledge for anybody creating a document.
In this section, you will learn how to Bold, Italicize, Underline, increase or decrease font size, and Strikethrough In WordPad. Moreover, you will also learn how to Subscript and Superscript In WordPad.
In the last sub-section of this section, I will teach you how to Change Text And Background Colors In WordPad.
To increase or decrease font style in WordPad – highlight parts of the document you wish to change the font style. Then, click the Font style drop-down and select the new font you want to use.
If you want to change the font style for the entire document, press Ctrl and A keys simultaneously; to select all texts in the document. Then, click the font style drop-down and select a new font.
Additionally, to increase the font size, select the text you want to change its font size. Then, click the Font Size drop-down. Furthermore, you can use the Grow or the Shrink fonts icons – with A icons – to increase or decrease the font size respectively – see the second screenshot below.
This is another essential skill you require to create an excellent WordPad document is changing how your text look. This sub-section teaches you how to bold a text in WordPad.
You will also learn how to make a word or sentence in italics, underline it or add strikethrough to a word or sentence.
To make a word or phrase bold, make it italics, underline it, or strike it through, select the text, then click one of the four highlighted icons – from left to right.
To make a highlighted text superscript, click the first icon in the highlighted portion of the screenshot below. Additionally, to make a text subscript, click the second icon – counting from left to right.
In this final sub-section of the Windows 10 WordPad font help section, you will learn how to change color and/or background in WordPad.
To change the text color of a highlighted text in your WordPad document, click the drop-down in the highlighted portion or the image below – then, select a color for the text.
You may also wish to change the background color of a highlighted word or phrase. To perform this task, click the Text highlighter drop-down (see the screenshot below). Then, pick a color.
Like fonts, paragraphing in WordPad is an essential tool. It is therefore, not surprising that we included it in our Windows 10 WordPad help guide.
In this section, you will learn how to indent, create a list or adjust line spaces. This section also covers text alignment and how to use the paragraph dialogue box. Let’s move it!
The indent of a document is the distance that separates the paragraph from the left or right margin. In this section, you will learn how to increase or decrease indents in Windows 10 WordPad.
You can adjust the indent of a line, a paragraph or the whole document.
To decrease the indent of a line, place your mouse cursor on the line. Then, click the Decrease indent icon. However, if you wish to increase the indent of the line, click the the Increase indent icon – see the second screenshot below.
You can also adjust indent in WordPad by moving the indent ruler. See the arrows in the screenshot below.
The listing feature makes it easy for you to display a set of points in an easy-to-follow way. WordPad supports Bullets, Numbering, Alphabets, and Roman numeral.
To create a list in WordPad, place your mouse where you want to add the list in the document. Then, in the Paragraph section of the WordPad Home tab, click the Start a list drop-down.
Finally, from the drop-down options, select your list type.
When the first list option is displayed, enter the first line of your list. Then, to display the next line of the list, place your mouse cursor at the end of the first list and press the Enter key on your keyboard.
The Paragraph section of the Home tab offers additional features. In this sub-section, you will learn how to use these additional features.
Specifically, you will learn how to change the spacing between lines of text and add or remove space after paragraphs. The sub-section also covers steps to align texts left, center, right, or justify.
To increase or reduce the space between texts in a WordPad document, select the texts you want to adjust the spaces. Then, on the Line spacing drop-down.
Finally, from the displayed Line spacing options, select one. The default Windows 10 Word Line spacing is 1.5.
To reduce the line spacing, select 1.0 or 1.15. Moreover, to increase the Line spacing beyond the default value, select a line spacing of 2.
There is one more option in the Line spacing drop-down – Add 10pt space after paragraphs. More on this beneath this screenshot.
The “Add 10pt space after paragraphs” option is a useful feature if you need to add additional space below a selected text. In the screenshot below, the feature is disabled for the selected text (“Performance”) – note the smaller space beneath this word.
To add an additional 10pt beneath “Performance”, I will click Add 10pt space after paragraphs. This adds additional space beneath the selected text (“Performance”).
This is the final sub-section in this section. WordPad has a Paragraph dialogue box – located at the far right bottom of the Paragraph section of the Home tab.
The Paragraph dialogue box offers you a single dialogue box to adjust all the features discussed in this section – except adding Lists. In other words, you can use the Paragraph dialogue box to adjust indentation, Line spacing, and text alignment.
This tool also offers you the option to Add 10pt space after paragraphs.
To display the Paragraph dialogue box, select the text(s) you want to adjust, then click the Paragraph dialogue box icon – see the highlighted portion of the screenshot below.
If you do not select a text in the WordPad document, changes you make in the Paragraph dialogue box will apply to the whole document.
Finally, adjust the relevant portions of the Paragraph dialogue box and click OK.
This section covers one of the most powerful sets of features of WordPad in Windows 10. Unlike Notepad, WordPad has features to insert Pictures, open Paint, insert Date and Time, or even insert other documents!
In the next four sub-sections, you will learn how to use these exciting WordPad features.
To insert a picture in WordPad, follow the steps below:
The picture will jump right into your WordPad document!
If you want to change the picture or resize it, select the picture (left-click it once). Then, click the drop-down beneath the Picture icon. Finally, select the option you require.
When I introduced this section, I mentioned that WordPad has a feature that allows to insert a Windows 10 Paint Drawing (link opens in a new browser tab). This feature allows you to add more creativity to your WordPad document.
If you need help learning how to use Windows 10 Paint, read our comprehensive guide – Get Help With Paint on Windows 10 (link opens in a new browser tab).
To insert a Paint Drawing, click your mouse cursor where you want to insert the drawing. Then, on the Insert section of the Home tab, click the Paint Drawing icon.
This action opens Windows 10 Paint.
If you create documents that require you to add dates and time, this feature will be useful to you.
To insert Date and time to your WordPad document, click where you want to insert date and time. Then, click the Date and Time icon – this displays Date and time formating options.
Finally, select a date and time format and click OK. The current date and time will be inserted in the format you selected – see the second screenshot below.
Depending on your job and the type of WordPad documents you create, you may need to insert charts, and other types of documents. WordPad offers you this option.
To see available document inert options, click the Insert object icon.
Then, with the Create New option selected (default), select the Object Type you want to insert. Finally, to create and insert the new object type selected, on the top right of the Insert Object dialogue box, click OK.
The Insert Object dialogue box has an option to insert an existing file. To do this, click the Create from File option. Then, follow the steps to insert your document.
If you have a WordPad document with thousands of words, you will need a feature to find specific words or phrases. Moreover, you may need to replace a word or phrase that appear thousand of times.
Windows 10 WordPad has a feature that allows you to find a word or phrase, and if you want to, replace the word with another word. This section teaches you how to use the Find, Find and Replace and Select All features in WordPad.
As you may have imagined, you can the Find dialogue box via the WordPad menu – or via a keyboard shortcut. You are right!
To open the the Find dialogue box via the WordPad menu, click the Home tab. Then, on the Editing section, click the Find icon.
You can also press Ctrl and F keys simultaneously.On the Find dialogue box, enter the word or phrase you want to search for, then click Find Next.
As you can see from the screenshot below, the Find dialogue box has two search criteria – Match whole word only and Match case.
Use the Match whole word only feature to find the exact word you want – and not the word, within another word.
For example, in this document, the word “book” occurs several times in the document. Additionally, the word “Chromebook” occur several times.
If I search for the word “book” without checking Match whole word only, WordPad search will highlight all occurrences of the word “book” including its occurrences in “Chromebook“.
However, if I check Match whole word only, WordPad search will highlight actual occurrences of the word “book” excluding its occurrences in “Chromebook“.
Still, on fine-tuning search in WordPad, there is a second search feature called Match case. This is very useful if you want to display the exact case of the word entered in the “Find what” field.
For example, if I search for the word “BOOK” and check Match case, my search will NOT return “book” or “Book” because these words do NOT match the case “BOOK” – which is all caps.
In this section, you will appreciate the importance of the two WordPad search criteria – Match whole word only and Match case – discussed in the last sub-section.
To understand the examples in this sub-section, I strongly recommend that you read the last sub-section – How To Use The “Find” Search Feature In WordPad (link opens the sub-section in a new browser tab).
While the WordPad “Find” feature is used to search for words in a document, the “Find and Replace” feature is used to – you guessed it – find and replace words or phrases in WordPad.
To open the “Replace” dialogue box, on the Edit section of the Home tab, click Replace.
You can also open the “Replace” dialogue box by pressing the Ctrl and H keys simultaneously.The “Replace” dialogue box is similar to the “Find” dialogue box.
The only difference is that “Replace” has an additional field called “Replace with”. Moreover, it has 2 additional buttons – “Replace” and Replace All”.
I will be explaining these features with some examples below…
Following on from the examples in the last sub-section, I will be find all words with ” book” – with a space before the word – and replacing them with the word “book” – with no space before the word.
The person that wrote the document I am using in this example sometimes spelled “Chromebook” as “Chrome book”. My search will find all occurrences of ” book” in “Chrome book” and replace them with “book” to make the word “Chromebook”
Here is the search criteria in the “Replace” dialogue box. I admit that this is not a perfect example; as the search will replace all spaces in the stand-alone word ” book” with the same word without the space – but you get the gist.
The Select All feature in WordPad is used to select all texts and images – select everything – in the document. To select all, on the Edit section of the Home tab, click Select all.
Once the whole document is selected, you can copy, cut, delete, or do whatever you want to do with the selected texts.
You can also Select All by pressing the Ctrl and A keys simultaneously.So far in this Windows 10 WordPad help guide, we have covered topics about the first 2 tabs in WordPad – File and Home. In this section, we will look at the last tab in WordPad – the View tab.
The WordPad “View” tab offers some useful features like zoom, show/hide rule, status bar, and more. In this section, you will learn how to use these features.
Then zoom feature is useful for users that may need to increase the size of a WordPad document on their screen. This feature does not modify the font size, it just increases or decreases the size of the document on your screen.
To access the WordPad Zoom feature, click the View tab.
Then, to increase the size of the document on your screen, click Zoom in. Zoom out does the opposite – it decreases the size of the document on your screen.
You can also Zoom in by moving the slider at the bottom right of the View tab, right. Moving the slider left Zooms out.
Finally, back on the top left of the View tab, to return the document to its original size, click the 100% icon.
By default, the top of a WordPad document displays a Ruler. Also, the bottom displays a Status Bar. However, you can disable these features. See details below this screenshot.
To remove the ruler on top of the document, uncheck Ruler in the View tab.
Additionally, to remove the status bar at the bottom of WordPad, uncheck Status bar.
The Word Wrap feature in WordPad determines how your document fits into the WordPad window.
To access the WordPad Wrap feature, on the Settings section of the View tab, click the Word Wrap drop-down. The drop-down offers three options – No Wrap, Wrap to ruler (default) and Wrap to window.
The No Wrap option does what it says, removes any wrapping around your document. This option effectively wraps the document to fit the entire WordPad window.
However, when you select Wrap to ruler (default), your document is wrapped around the rule.
Finally, if you want your document to fit into the entire WordPad window, select the Wrap to window option. At first glance, this option looks like the No Wrap option – however, there is a difference – see below this screenshot for my explanation of the difference.
The screenshot below is a WordPad document with the No Wrap option selected. If you look closely, you’ll notice that some parts of the document are hidden.
To view the hidden parts of the documents, you need to use the scroll bar at the bottom.
On the other hand, here is a screenshot of a WordPad document with the Wrap to window option selected. Notice that all the documents fit in the WordPad window?
That’s right! If you look at the bottom of the document, there is no scroll bar.
Like Notepad, WordPad does not have a built-in spell-check tool. However, you can add this feature by enabling Autocorrect misspelt words in Windows 10.
In our Notepad help guide, we have the detailed steps to enable Autocorrect misspelt words. Click this link to read how – Get Help With Notepad In Windows 10: How to Spell Check In Notepad (link opens in a new browser tab).
Unfortunately, like spell-check, WordPad does not have an inbuilt tool to password a document. However, there is a walk-around to overcome this limitation.
The walk-around is to use 7-zip to zip the WordPad document. Then, password the zipped file. We have the steps for passwording a folder (link opens in a new browser tab).
You can use the same steps outlined in our guide – How to Password Protect a Folder on Windows 10 (link opens in a new browser tab). All you need to do is replace the folder with your WordPad document.
Once again, I am sorry to say that WordPad does NOT have a tool to make tables. However, wikiHow.com has an article with steps to make a table in WordPad.
Here is the link to the wikiHow.com article – How to Quickly Make a Table for WordPad (link opens in a new browser tab).
Without a doubt, learning WordPad keyboard shortcuts is an important Windows 10 WordPad help topic. After all, using keyboard shortcuts can improve your productivity.
