word processing
The classical term is "word processing".
You can note that Wikipedia REDIRECTS to "word processing" if you try to access "text processing":
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Text_processing ;
and the "Microsoft Word" entry starts with:
"Microsoft Office Word is Microsoft's flagship word processing software."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Word
By contrast, "text processing" often refers to what is done in programming languages and is of interest to programmers, not to end-users.
http://www.amazon.com/Text-Processing-Python-David-Mertz/dp/...
"Text" also means a mobile message (an SMS) in Britain.
I suggest sticking to "word processing".
