Select a margin setting.Revise words underlined in red, green, or blueWord enters a wavy red underline under misspelled words or under words it does not recognize. A wavy green underline under text means that Word thinks the grammar should be revised. A blue underline means a word may not be the correct word in the sentence. When you see an underline, right-click the word the word that is underlined, and then select a suggested revision. Word will replace the underlined word with your selection, and the underline will go away. Note that every once in a while Word may not be able to offer any alternatives. You can always type your own correction over the selected word. If you enter something that is correctly spelled but Word doesn't recognize it, such as a proper name, for example, right-click, and then click Add to Dictionary. A note of caution about green and blue underlines: Word is really good at spelling, which is pretty straightforward (most of the time). But grammar and correct word usage take some judgment. You can click Ignore or Ignore All to ignore suggested revisions and get rid of the underlines. Tip????

The template determines the document's basic structure, such as the page layout, styles and formatting. Word offers customized document templates, which allow the user to jump immediately into creating a document such as a fax or memo, which has already been partially created by Word.InstructionsClick on the File or “Office Button” menu, then click "New."Click "General Templates," which will be under New from Template in the menu that opened from Step 1Look at the tabs that are displayed on the new menu.

Then click "OK."Fill in the document by placing the cursor on the "click here" sections.Save your file by going to "File," then "Save As."Add a Command to the Quick Access ToolbarThe Quick Access Toolbar is a customizable toolbar that contains a set of commands that are independent of the 7 tabs that are located across the top of the screen. When you start working in any of the Office programs Microsoft has preset the Quick Access Toolbar to have Save, Undo, and Redo command buttons. Therefore, to make it easier to use the different software programs you may want add commands to the Quick Access Toolbar. You can add commands in several different ways:Using the Customize Quick Access Toolbar option Directly from commands that are displayed on the different Ribbons.Using the Word Options from the Office Button (old Options command on the Tools menu)Using the Customize Quick Access Toolbar option To the right of the Quick Access Toolbar is the Customize Quick Access Toolbar option . 4260850422910Click on the Customize Quick Access Toolbar option and then select each of the provided command buttons such as:NewOpenEmailQuick PrintPrint PreviewSpelling and GrammarDraw TableDirectly from commands that are displayed on the different RibbonsOn the Ribbon, click the appropriate tab or group to display the command that you want to add to the Quick Access ToolbarRight-click the command, and then click Add to Quick Access Toolbar on the shortcut menu58159651616075 Using the Word Options from the Office Button or FileFrom the File Tab or Office Button click on Options or Work Options button From the Word Options window select Quick Access Toolbar or Customize option From the Customize the Quick Access Toolbar in the Choose commands from: area click on the down-pointing arrow and choose All Commands 5321935290830Scroll through all the additional command buttons until you locate the new button then double-click on the button which will automatically to add it to your list on located on the right (or click on command button and then click on Add)Then click on OK button located on bottom right of the dialog boxNotice the Move Up and Move Down buttons located on the right side of the customize window. This will allow you to change the position of each of the buttons to fit your needs.How to modify the Normal Template in Microsoft WordWhen you open a new file in Microsoft Word 2007/10, you will quickly notice how they have changed many of the previously accepted standards we had grown to expect from the 2003 version such as the font being set to Times Roman size 12. Since most business correspondence is still expected to be written using the 2003 standards the following instructions can be used to permanently modify the new “Normal” template.4013200118745Right click on the “Normal” template5549900139700Then left click on the “Modify” option in the alternative menuThen click on the following options1892300177800The in the font text box and choose Times New RomanFrom the font size drop-down choose 12Left click the Single Space buttonLeft click the Decrease Paragraph Spacing buttonLeft click the New documents based on this template buttonThen click on the OK buttonUsing Styles to Make Your Document ProfessionalOne of the great things about using a word processor is that you can create documents that look professionally typeset.Headings are in a font that contrasts with body text. Paragraphs are separated with just enough white space. Elements such as bulleted lists are indented. Emphasized text is in a contrasting color. Using direct formattingWord provides several ways for you to achieve each of these effects in your document. For example, to format headings, you can select the text, apply bold formatting, and then apply a slightly larger font size than the size that you use for the body text. Applying formatting directly to your document is time consuming and it is easy to make mistakes when you try to remember all of the different ways you have formatted the title, headings and subheading. Each time you have to decide how to make you document stand out but also be consistent making sure you repeat the direct formatting process for each section of the document.Using stylesBy contrast, when you use styles to format your document, you can quickly and easily apply a set of formatting choices consistently throughout your document.A style is a set of formatting characteristics, such as font name, size, color, paragraph alignment and spacing. Some styles even include borders and shading. Some of the Available Styles Ideas3536315520065The Quick Styles that you see in the gallery of styles are designed to work together. For example, the Heading 2 Quick Style is designed to look subordinate to the Heading 1 Quick Style.The body text of your document is automatically formatted with the Normal Quick Style.Quick Styles can be applied to paragraphs, but you can also apply them to individual words and characters. For example, you can emphasize a phrase by applying the Emphasis Quick Style.When you format text as part of a list, each item in the list is automatically formatted with the List Paragraph Quick Style.An assortment of style types: Word provides several style types:Character and paragraph styles determine the look of most of the text in a document. Some styles work as both character and paragraph types, and these styles are known as linked styles. List styles determine the look of lists, including characteristics such as bullet style or number scheme, indentation, and any label text. Table styles determine the look of tables, including characteristics such as the text formatting of the header row, gridlines, and accent colors for rows and columns. The new design tabIn the past, document level formatting features in Word were scattered throughout the Home tab to the Themes gallery on the Page Layout tab. In Word 2013 Microsoft brought together into a?unified Design tab (Design Tab image below):On this tab are all the features that change the look of your entire document (without you needing to select it). It’s perfect for those times when you realize you’ve written your entire document in Calibri but you really want it in Garamond, or for those of you who’d prefer to have no spacing between lines or paragraphs of text. You can even change all the colors in your document at once.Use the tab before you create your document if you want to write it in your final font & color combination, or use it after you’re done to watch your document transform before your eyes.Style Sets galleryWhile there were available in 2007 and 2010 the new design features is the visual gallery for Word’s Style Sets.These galleries were to give you choice by showing you a pictures of the Title, Heading 1 and some body text. By making them a large gallery, you can quickly experiment with them to find which one you want – in just one click you can go from a casual multicolored document to a professional looking black and white document with numbered headings.While these features aren’t new to Office 2013, we are making them more visible, so it seems like a good time to explain how each of the buttons in the Document Formatting chunk will affect your document.ThemesThe Themes button is a big switch that changes Colors, Fonts and Effects at once.This makes it easy to change many attributes at the same time or to match your Word document to your PowerPoint deck. Similar to Themes, Style Sets act as a big switch and have a large effect on the look of your document.Style SetsTheme colorsTheme colors (also described as your color scheme) set the colors used in your document. A few places where you’ll notice this change are:The Theme Colors available in the color dropdownAnything that uses Theme Colors including shapes, SmartArt, charts and text.Any tables that are formatted using a colored table styleFor example, if you really like Red, you may choose to change your color scheme from Office to the “Red” scheme:Theme fontsTheme fonts (similarly, sometimes described as your font scheme) set the font used by all the text in your document. It will change any text that is formatted using the fonts that have “(Heading)” or “(Body)” next to their name:Create and print a single envelopeIf you want to include your return address on the envelope, you can set this up before you start working on the envelope.

The face is the side that the address is printed on.If the envelope is fed short edge first, the envelope may need to be rotated to prevent the text from appearing upside down on the face of the envelope.The envelope in the illustration below is positioned to the right, face down, flap at the top, and the short edge is being fed into the printer, in accordance with the settings in the dialog box shown above.Load the envelope as indicated in the dialog box.

Multilevel List button697865513715What Are TablesTables are organizers that can help simplify even the most complex Microsoft Office Word documents.Some people use tables in Word for organizing text and data into rows and columns. While Word tables are great for displaying data in your documents, you can also use them for quick and easy forms or to create complex page layouts in a snap. A Word table is an object you can add to your document to help organize text and other content on a page. It's simply a container that works very much like a closet organizer or that tray in your silverware drawer: it provides separate space for each of your important items so that things are easy to find, and helps you fit more without crowding. You add tables to your document in order to display text and data, to create simple and professional forms that others complete electronically, or to help organize the elements on a page for complex documents like presentations and reports. To Insert a TableTo insert a new table into your document, first click to place your insertion point where you want the table to appear.

While graphics are often added for personal or entertainment purposes, there are ways you can make them look professional and appealing in any type of document, whether it's an article, newsletter, or business card.Getting startedBefore you add clip art to your documents, here are a few helpful hints to make the layout and design process easier.Know what art you want to addThe Clip Art task pane in Word makes searching for clips simple because it lets you search the Clip Art and Media site on Office Online from right within Word. When you see a clip you like on the site, simply click the clip and drag it into your document.Insert an Image From Your Computer in 2013If you have a picture on your computer, flash drive, saved off of the Internet, or on a CD, you can insert it straight into your document.4185285190500Click or tap in your document where you want the image placed.Click the Pictures button on the Insert tab in the?Illustrations?section. The Insert Picture dialog box opens.Navigate to the location of the saved images, such as My Pictures on your hard drive or a CD.Click on the image you want to use to select it.Click the Open button. Your chosen image is inserted into your document.Display Clip Art-related Contextual Tab and RibbonWhen you have inserted any type of illustration or image Word 2007/13 will automatically add the Format Tab. To work with the tab, double-click the image that you want to edit and you will see the following tab.503682015875Customizing Your Clip ArtNow that you have selected your clips, inserted them into a Word document, and viewed the related Contextual Tab, it’s time to start working with ClipArt in your document.CroppingWhen you crop an image, you are removing any areas of it that you don’t want to be shown. In this example, the bottom half of the image at left was cropped to remove the second cluster of clouds. The result is shown in the image at right.Cropping is helpful when you're trying to call attention to a certain area of an image, while omitting any unnecessary detail.To Crop A ClipSelect the clip in your document. On the Format Picture tab, click the Crop button located in the Size group (see below)Place the mouse pointer over one of the black squares around the edge of the clip. Then click and drag until you have cropped the clip to the desired area. SizingWhile you may find the perfect clip for your document, it may not always be the right size. Since cropping isn’t always appropriate, resizing the clip allows you to either enlarge or reduce its size to fit within a certain area. For example, the first clip below was enlarged into the second clip; the third clip has been resized disproportionately.5374640-189865To resize a clipSelect the clip. (You should now see, circles or squares appear all around your selected image)Move your mouse pointer over one of the open circles around the edge of the image.

Keyboard shortcuts in the 2007/13 Office systemKeyboard shortcuts and the RibbonIn the 2007/10 Microsoft? Office system, some programs?— Word, Excel?, PowerPoint?, Access, and parts of Outlook??— have been redesigned for greater efficiency and ease of use. Along with the new look come new keyboard shortcuts for accessing and executing commands.Keyboard shortcuts called access keys relate directly to the tabs, commands, and other things that you see on the screen. You use access keys by pressing the ALT key followed by another key or a sequence of other keys.Every single command on the Ribbon, the Microsoft Office Button menu, and the Quick Access Toolbar has an access key, and every access key is assigned a Key Tip.How to use Key TipsPress the ALT key. Badges showing the Key Tips appear.Press the key for the tab or Quick Access Toolbar command you want. If you press a tab Key Tip, you see the Key Tips for every command on that tab. If you press a Quick Access Toolbar command Key Tip, the command is executed.Press the key (or keys) for the tab command you want. Depending on what command you choose, an action may be executed or a gallery or menu may open; in the latter case you can choose another Key Tip.Tip??? If the Key Tip badge shows two letters, press them one after the other.Other ways to navigate the RibbonYou can also move around the Ribbon by using the arrow or TAB keys.Press the ALT key to move the focus to the Ribbon. Move around the Ribbon: Move left, right, up, or down by pressing the relevant arrow key. Move from command to command within a group, then on to the next group, by pressing the TAB key.

However, you'll need to know the full shortcut from memory. There are no on-screen reminders of what keys you need to press.In previous versions of Office, you pressed ALT, E to open the Edit menu, and then you pressed an underlined letter to execute a command. In the 2007/10 Office system Ribbon programs, when you press ALT and then one of the old menu keys, you won't open a menu. Instead, you'll see a message telling you that you're using an Office 2003 access key and to press ESC to cancel. If you know the key sequence you want, you can just carry on and initiate the command. Otherwise, do as the box says and press ESC to see the Key Tip badges.Note??? You can also move the pointer around the screen without the mouse by using the MouseKeys. These enable the arrows on the numeric keypad on your keyboard to move the pointer around. For further information about MouseKeys, see Microsoft Windows? bination keyboard shortcutsA key combination keyboard shortcut is a set of keystrokes that, when pressed together, initiate an action. You can find the key combination for a command by resting the mouse pointer over it. If you're not using a mouse, there are no on-screen reminders of the key combinations?— you have to memorize the keys. Practically all of these shortcuts work in exactly the same way as they did in previous versions of Microsoft Office.Other helpful keyboard tips and tricksUse the TAB key and arrow keys to navigate a dialog box.
