# 2.3. What parts of this guide should I read?

Anyone who has looked at the table of contents has surely come to the conclusion that reading this manual from cover to cover, is an unreasonable (and fortunately unecessary) task.

This user guide is designed to be helpful to a wide variety of users, from the very experienced, to the novice user. Each user will have different needs from this manual. To help you determine what you should read and what you can wait on, I have prepared a suggested reading list for three levels of user.

If you read each of these sections before you start using KWord, you will find that using KWord is easy.

Experience Level | Previous Experience | What you should read
--- | --- | ---
Novice | No previous computer expierience |
Fundimentals
Step by Step Tutorial
The KWord Screen
Document Storage and Printing
Editing Your Document
Introduction to Menu Bars and Tool Bars
Intermediate | Comfortable with other page based wordprocessors (Microsoft Word, Word Perfect and Applixware.) |
Fundimentals
Step by Step Tutorial
Advanced User | Comfortable with other frames based word processors (Frame Maker, etc). |
The differenct between Wordprocessing and DTP templates
The difference between Text Edit mode and Frame Edit mode

Obviously this will not cover everyones needs. What it should do, however, is help you figure out which parts of the manual you need to read before you begin using KWord.

These sections will help you get started. You can then refer to the other parts of this manual as you need to help you wil specific situations.
