Glossary

Virtual Memory

Space on the hard disk that Windows uses for temporary data storage as if
it were actually random access memory (RAM). Windows does this by
means of a swap file. This provides Windows with more usable memory,
but reduces speed of access to it when the swap file must be used. See
also
Physical RAM.

W

WebNetSpot

This utility is used to control network printers.

Weight

Refers to the thickness of a font: light, medium, or bold. Also refers to the
thickness of paper.

Windows Explorer

The Windows program you can use to browse through, open, and manage
the disk drives, folders, and files on your computer in a network system.
You can also use Windows Explorer to view and open shared folders on
other computers on the network. You can use Windows Explorer to
manage your files by moving, copying, renaming, and deleting files.

WYSIWYG

Pronounced wizzy-wig, an acronym for “what you see is what you get.”
For example, when you format a paragraph, the line breaks that appear on
the printed page are exactly the same as they are on the screen.
