ordSmith Overview
troduction
As mentioned above, WordSmith is not only a document editor but also an enhanced memo pad and
document viewer. This section briefly covers the differences between the WordSmith memos and docs
and the Edit Mode and View Mode of WordSmith. In addition, it covers some basics, such as
understanding WordSmith’s memo and doc list views (the screens that list all of your memos or docs (the
“List View Screen”)) and organizing and accessing more information about your memos and docs. Lastly,
the pull-down menus that are accessible while you are in a List View Screen are also described below.
Note Regarding Coverage of WordSmith Pull-Down Menus in this Manual
After spending a few minutes playing around with WordSmith, you will see that it is an
incredibly feature-rich and menu-rich application. To help you understand what the menu
items refer to we have split up coverage of the menus as described below:
Doc and Memo List View Screen Menus – Chapter 4
Doc Editing Menus – Chapter 5
Memo Editing Menus – Chapter 6
Doc and Memo Viewing Menus – Chapter 7

Memos v. Docs
When you launch WordSmith on your organizer, you are given the option of working with memos or docs.
You can toggle between memos and docs by tapping on the Memo or Doc Title Tab at the top of the
WordSmith list view screen.
WordSmith memos and docs have many of the same menu options and functionality. In general, memos
are good for short notes, to-do lists and other material that doesn’t necessarily need to be synced to your
desktop. (In WordSmith, memos lose formatting when they are synced to your desktop. If you decide that
you want to sync a memo with your desktop, select Save as Doc and then sync it to your desktop.) Docs,
on the other hand, are good for longer letters, papers and reports. Another major difference between docs
and memos is that memos have a 4,000-character limit and do not have some of the formatting features
that are available with docs. Lastly, when you close a doc and reopen the doc, WordSmith remembers
where you were in the doc and whether you were in Edit Mode or View Mode. WordSmith memos do not
have this capability at this time.
WordSmith’s memo pad is vastly improved over the built-in memo pad on your organizer. For example, it
supports rich text (i.e., bold, underline, italics and strikethrough), formatting, such as right and left
