The document is stored in memory until you save it. Most programs also save a temporary file -- the location depends on the application and how your specific computer is configured.

Best practice is to save a document as soon as you start editing, so you at least have a file in a location you can find. Additionally, ensure your program has the auto-save feature activated and the time set to no more than 10 minutes.

TIP: Recommend you get in the habbit of clicking the save button each time you make a change to your document that you would not want to type over if the power suddenly went out on your computer (and you have no battery backup).
