Just found this video. I spent ages trying to find a way of creating a letter using my Chromebook, didn't go too well, then found Google Docs, but it wasn't the version like this, now got it. Must thank you for your very descriptive video, helped so much. Only ever used Word or OpenOffice. Great video, and so helpful from a very happy UK Google user

Hi I'm 74 years old and I run a video production studio, I've always use Macs And I probably always will. That being said I am discovering that In
(my opinion) Most things That you can use Google for Are just better and Simpler Then Mac, Except for Final Cut Pro X And its associated programs. Good tutorial keep up the good work.

Thanks for this tutorial! I’d like to figure out how to take a Word Document and put it on Google Docs, for a school team assignment.

Hi Stephen, These are great instructions especially for me, 58 years old, new Chromebook user due to budget price and must learn on the fly to look for employment and create resumes. Also, helpful to know is to press control (ctrl) key + to enlarge view, or ctrl - to minimize view on Google docs. Have a great day every body! :)
