Abstract

A word processor having an output function for adding margin text, such as a heading or a footing to a main text, includes main text editor, margin text editor, print controller, display device and display device controller. The display controller displays the main text and the margin text simultaneously on the display device in the same form as they are printed out on a paper. Thus, the margin text can be set without printing while an operator confirms its print form.
