Learning the Basics
Using the keyboard
Character keys 
Typing with the character keys is very much like typing on a 
typewriter, except that: 
The space bar creates a space character instead of just passing 
over an area of the page.
The lowercase letter l (el) and the number 1 are not 
interchangeable.
The uppercase letter O and the number 0 are not 
interchangeable.
Making your keyboard emulate a full-size keyboard
Although your computer’s keyboard layout is compatible with a 
standard full-size keyboard, it includes fewer keys. 
A standard full-size keyboard includes two 
Enter
Ctrl
, and 
Alt
 keys; 
editing keys; cursor positioning keys; and a numeric keypad. 
Your computer’s keyboard includes only one 
Enter 
key. Most of the 
time, this does not matter. However, some programs assign separate 
functions to the regular and numeric pad 
Enter
 keys on the full-sized 
keyboard. Using the 
Fn
 key, you can simulate the separate key, as 
follows: Press 
Fn
 and 
Enter
 simultaneously to simulate the 
Enter
 key 
on the numeric pad of the enhanced keyboard. Pressing the
 Fn
 key 
simultaneously in combination with one of the specially marked 
keys allows you to emulate a full-size keyboard. 
Ctrl, Fn, and Alt keys
  
(Sample Illustration) Ctrl, Fn, and Alt keys 
The 
Ctrl
Fn
, and 
Alt
 keys do different things depending on the 
program you are using. For more information, see your program 
documentation.
Function keys
The function keys (not to be confused with the 
Fn
 key) are the 12 
keys at the top of the keyboard.
