Working with Styles

What are styles? Styles are templates that define the formatting for your text. They provide a separation of the presentation from the information. There are 5 types of styles: Paragraph styles: these styles define the layout of your paragraphs (line spacing, indents, tab, borders, etc.) Character styles: these styles define the style of individual characters (font, font size, color, weight, italic, underline, strike through, letter spacing, etc.) Linked styles: these styles define both paragraph and character styles Table styles: these styles define the appearance of tables (shading of rows of columns, thickness of gridlines) List styles: these styles define the appearance of bulleted and numbered lists (bullet type, indentation, etc.)

Applying styles Styles can be applied using The ribbon (Home tab) Keyboard shortcuts (Ctrl + Alt + 1/2/3. Ctrl + Shift + N) Styles pane Creating a style from another style A style can be created by using another style as a template Creating a style from current formatting A style can be created after the fact by selecting some text and extracting its formatting as a style. 1.Select text 2.Context menu Style > Save Selection as a New Quick Style…

Updating a style from current formatting In the same way that it is possible to create a style from the formatting of the Current selection, you can update an existing style from the formatting of the current selection. 1.Select text 2.Context menu Style > Save [Style name] to Match Selection Use / Create a group of styles as a Quick Style Set You can save a group of styles into a Quick Set. The set can then be easily applied to another document (this is equivalent to the Word templates in Word 2003) To Use a Style Set 1.Home tab 2.Change Styles button > Style Set > Select the style set of your choice To Create a Style Set: 1.Home tab 2.Change Styles button > Style Set > Save as Quick Style Set…

Tracking and Reviewing

Word lets you annotate and track changes in a document. It offers several ways of viewing a document that has changes. All the Features regarding tracking are in the Review tab. Tracking Changes Several ways for toggling change tracking: Ctrl + Shift + E Click on the Track Changes in he status bar (if present) Review tab > Track Changes button Displaying changes The changes can be shown inline or in balloons. Displaying the changing using balloons gives a better idea of what the final document will look like as all the deletions are shown in the margin. Showing changes When tracking changes, you can view the following versions of the document: 1.Final showing markup: Show document with insertions inline and deletion in balloons 2.Final: show document if all changes were to be accepted 3.Original showing markup: Show documents with deletions inline and insertions in balloons 4.Original: show document if all changes were to be rejected 1 and 3 are different only when balloons are used.

Accepting and rejecting changes When creating the final version of the document, each change can be either accepted or rejected. You can accept or reject the changes individually or for the entire document. There are several ways of doing this: 1.Click on the text with the change 2.Accept or Reject the change by a.Right-click and select Accept Change or Reject Change b.Click on the Accept or Reject button at the top. Tip: You can select a piece of text containing several changes and click on the Accept or Reject button. This has the effect of accepting or rejecting all the changes in the selected text. Comments It is possible to add, delete and navigate between comments. Comments let you put in extra text that is not part of the text. They are useful for asking questions and communicating during the review process.

Word 2007 Service Pack 2 This is now built in. You can create PDF files by doing a Save As and selecting PDF for the file type. You can also a document as a PDF attachment. Word 2007 RTM and Service Pack 1 An add-in must be installed (search for 2007 Microsoft Office Add-in: Microsoft Save as PDF or XPS on Microsoft.com or go to A Save to PDF entry is then added to your Office button menu. Word 2003 Install a PDF driver and print the file to the PDF printer. In fact this works with every application. PdfCreator is a good open-source PDF driver ( )

Other languages are available. Research Pane The research pane offers easy only access to dictionary, thesaurus, bilingual dictionary, online search. A connection to the internet is required.
