In Mac OS, which action starts the process to save a document?

• A. Click the Save Icon in the Toolbar
• B. Use the Print Command from the File Menu
• C. Press Command-S
• D. Close the Window Without Saving

Answer: (A)

Saving a document is started by the Save icon in the toolbar—the disk-shaped button. Clicking this icon tells the application to perform the save right away, saving the current state to the file. If it’s a new document, you’ll usually be prompted to name the file and choose a location. The other actions move you toward different tasks (printing) or would discard changes if you close without saving, so they don’t start the save process. While a keyboard shortcut exists to save, the visible Save icon is the direct cue that you want to store the document now.
