Upon launching AutoPad, you can create a new document or open an existing text file. The application provides a user-friendly interface with menus and toolbars for common actions such as saving, printing, undoing/redoing changes, and formatting text.
The automated text correction feature suggests similar words from a dictionary when you right-click on a misspelled word. This can help you quickly correct typographical errors while writing.
