A new blank document is opened. Page Formatting 3. Click the Adjust Margins button in the Page Setup group on the Page Layout tab, and click Custom Margins... in the drop-down menu. The Page Setup dialog box is displayed. 4. Make sure the Margins tab is current in the dialog box, and then enter 0.8" in the Top:, Bottom:, Left:, and Right: text boxes. Click the OK button to close the Page Setup dialog box to change the page margins. 5. Click the Change Page Orientation button in the Page Setup group of the Page Layout tab, and click Landscape in the drop-down menu to change the page orientation. 6. Click the Choose Page Size button in the Page Setup group of the Page Layout tab, and change the page size to legal. 7. Click the Add a Header button in the Header & Footer group on the Insert tab of the ribbon. In the drop-down menu, scroll to locate the Whisp style, and click it. The header area of the document is made active, and three content-control placeholders are inserted, one for the document title, one for the date, and one for the author's name. A content-control placeholder is a box in the correct position of place on the document to be filled later with text or objects. Note that the author's name is automatically filled in with the current user's name. 8. Enter My Word Practice as the document title and today's date in the date field. 9. Delete the content-control placeholder for the author name by clicking in the placeholder, then clicking the title bar of the placeholder to select it, and finally pressing the [Delete] key, as shown in Figure 2-1.

2 10. In the Design tab, which is an on-demand tab for the header and footer, locate a command in the Options group that will allow the header to be different on the first page of the document. Check the check box to enable this option. The header is removed, but only from page one. 11. To exit the header and footer, double-click in the body of the page between the header and footer or click the Close Header and Footer button in the Close group of the Design on-demand tab in the ribbon. 12. Click the Add Page Numbers button in the Header & Footer group on the Insert tab in the ribbon. 13. In the drop-down menu, select the options needed to add page numbers to the bottom of the page formatted in Brackets 2 style. The footer area is activated and a formatted page number is inserted. 14. Click the Page Number button in the Header & Footer group on the Design on-demand tab in the ribbon. Notice the same options are available in this drop-down menu as in the previous menu. Click the Format Page Numbers... command to open the Page Number Format dialog box. 15. In the Page Number Format dialog box, click the Number format: drop-down menu, and change the format to capital Roman numerals (I, II, III). Also, click the Start at: radio button, and enter 5 in the corresponding text box. 16. Click the OK button to close the dialog box and apply the changes to the document. Notice the page number is now five and represented with the Roman numeral V. 17. Applying what you have learned, exit the footer. Spell-Checker Features 18. Click the Home tab on the ribbon. Use the commands in the Font group to modify font, style, and size to 14 point Arial Black. 19. Enter the following sentence exactly as shown. Today was a wanderful daye. Yestarrday will be even better. Notice the word wanderful is automatically corrected to wonderful based on the AutoCorrect feature in Word. Also notice misspelled words are indicated by a red wavy underline. This line only indicates the word does not exist in Word's electronic dictionary, which does not necessarily mean the word is misspelled. 20. Right-click on the word daye. Notice spelling alternatives are displayed in the shortcut menu, as shown in Figure Click day in the shortcut menu to replace the misspelled word with that alternate spelling. 22. To perform a complete check of spelling and grammar, click the Spelling & Grammar button in the Proofing group on the Review tab of the ribbon or press the [F7] key. In the Spelling pane that is displayed on the right-hand side of the screen, the word Yestarrday is displayed at the top. This is the first

3 word the spell-checker encounters that is not recognized. Suggestions for alternate spellings are listed in the text box. 23. Select Yesterday in the text box, and click the Change button to correct the spelling. Since there are no more spelling or grammar issues in this document, a message appears indicating the check is complete and the Spelling pane is closed. Close the message. Copying, Cutting, and Pasting 24. Select the word Today by clicking in front of the T, holding down the left mouse button, and dragging across the word so it is highlighted. Doubleclicking a word also selects it. 25. Click the Cut button in the Clipboard group on the Home tab of the ribbon or press the [Ctri][X] key combination to cut the word from the document. Something that is cut from the document is removed and placed on the virtual clipboard. 26. Click to the right of the word Yesterday to place the insertion point at that spot. The insertion point is indicated by a vertical bar. Then click the Paste button in the Clipboard group on the Home tab of the ribbon or press the [Ctrl] [V] key combination to paste the cut text. To paste is to insert the content of the clipboard. In this case, the word Today is added at the insertion point. 27. Using the same technique, cut and paste the word Yesterday so it is at the beginning of the first sentence. 28. Click the Save button on the Quick Access toolbar or click Save in the File tab of the ribbon. Since this document has not yet been saved, the Save As backstage view is displayed. The backstage view contains commands for managing files, data about files, and Word options. 29. Click Browse on the right-hand side of the backstage view. A standard save dialog box is displayed. Navigate to your working folder and save the document as LastName_Word Formatting. The.docx file extension for a Word document is the default and automatically added. 30. Click at the end of the last sentence to move the insertion point there. 31. Press the [Enter] key twice. 32. Select the first sentence only, and click the Copy button in the Clipboard group on the Home tab of the ribbon or press the [Ctrl][C] key combination to copy the word. Something that is copied is placed on the clipboard, but not removed from the document. 33. Click before the letter B in the word better. Use the right arrow key to move the insertion point to the right of the period at the end of the sentence. 34. Press the space bar once to add a space after the period. 35. Paste the copied sentence nine times to create more text in the paragraph. Make sure the sentences form a single paragraph. Indentations and Special Formatting 36. In the Document Views group on the View tab in the ribbon, make sure the Print Layout button is on (highlighted). Also, in the Show group, make sure the Ruler check box is checked. 37. Click to the left of the first word in the first paragraph (Yesterday) to place the insertion point at the beginning of the paragraph. 38. Press the [Tab] key on the keyboard to indent the first line of the paragraph. 39. Click and drag the First Line Indent marker in the ruler to 1", as shown in Figure Click the dialog box launcher in the Paragraph group on the Page Layout tab of the ribbon to open the Paragraph dialog box. 41. In the Indentation area of the dialog box, make sure First line is selected in the Special: drop-down list, and enter 0.8 in the By: text box. Click the OK button to update the indentation of the paragraph's first line. 42. Click at the end of the first paragraph, and press the [Enter] key to begin a new paragraph. 43. Enter the following sentences. This is the second paragraph. It is different from the first. How nice. TIP If the Check grammar with spelling check box is checked in the Word Options dialog box, the document is also examined for proper grammar during a spellcheck.

4 44. Copy the second sentence, and paste it nine times at the end of the paragraph so there are twelve sentences in the second paragraph. 45. Select the letter T in the word This at the beginning of the second paragraph. 46. Click the Add a Drop Cap button in the Text group on the Insert tab of the ribbon, and click Dropped in the drop-down menu. A dropped cap is a stylized treatment in which the first letter of a paragraph is much larger in size than the rest of the text. Paragraph Formatting 47. Applying what you have learned, change the page orientation to portrait. Note: if the command is grayed out, deselect the dropped cap. 48. Select both paragraphs of text. 49. In the Paragraph group of the Page Layout tab in the ribbon, change the After: spacing setting to 18. Once you press the [Enter] key, you should see the second paragraph slightly shift down on the page. This is because there are now 18 points of space after each selected paragraph. 50. Select the first paragraph, right-click, and click Paragraph... in the shortcut menu. The Paragraph dialog box is displayed. 51. Explore the settings available in the dialog box, and then change the Line spacing: setting to Multiple and the At: setting to 1.5. Click the OK button to close the dialog box and update the paragraph. Notice how the space between lines in the paragraph has increased. 52. Move the insertion point to the beginning of the first paragraph. TIP Changing the Line spacing: setting to 1.5 lines is the same as changing it to Multiple with an At: setting of 1.5.

5 53. Press the [Enter] key once, and then the up arrow key once. Notice how the new first paragraph, which currently contains no text, has the same formatting as assigned to the original first paragraph. These settings were inherited from the original first paragraph. 54. Press the [Backspace] key once. The indentation is removed from the paragraph. 55. Enter the following text. Microsoft Word Practice Text Formatting and Styles So far, you have altered the appearance of text and paragraphs by changing the settings for selected text. However, a powerful tool in Microsoft Word is styles. A style is a named group of formatting settings that can be applied to a paragraph or characters. The formatting you have done to this point has been overriding the default settings of the Normal style. 56. Select the first paragraph, which is the text Microsoft Word Practice. 57. Using commands in the Font group on the Home tab of the ribbon, override the style settings by changing the font to Arial, size to 20, bold, underlined, italic, and orange (Orange, Accent 2). 58. Click the Center button in the Paragraph group on the Home tab of the ribbon to center-align the paragraph. The paragraph now appears like a heading in the document, and a style will be created to match these settings. 59. Click the More button in the style gallery on the Styles group in the Home tab. The style options are displayed in an enlarged window, as shown in Figure Click Create a Style in the enlarged window. The Create New Style from Formatting dialog box is displayed. 61. In the Name: text box, enter FirstName's Favorite (example: Jim's Favorite). Then, click the OK button to create the style. The style is now listed in the style gallery. 62. Click anywhere in the second paragraph (Yesterday...) to move the insertion point there. 63. Click the FirstName's Favorite style in the style gallery. The style is applied to the paragraph, and the text and paragraph assume the formatting settings in the style. 64. Click the Center button in the Paragraph group on the Home tab of the ribbon. This overrides the style to turn off the center alignment for the paragraph, and the button is no longer on (not highlighted). The paragraph is now flush left, or left-aligned. 65. Select the second paragraph, which starts with the text Yesterday. 66. Applying what you have learned, change the font color to blue (Blue, Accent 1, Lighter 40%). 67. Copy the second paragraph (Yesterday...), and paste it as the last paragraph of the document. Notice the Paste Options button that appears next to the pasted text, similar to a mini toolbar.

6 68. Click the Paste Options button to display a drop-down menu, as shown in Figure Click the Keep Source Formatting button in the menu. This keeps all formatting applied to the text before it was copied. This is the default, so if you do not click the Paste Options button and select an option, the source formatting will be assigned to the pasted text. 70. Select the text Today in the second sentence of the last paragraph. 71. Click the Clear All Formatting button in the Font group on the Home tab of the ribbon. This removes from the selected text all formatting that overrides the style. The word is now the same color as defined by the style. 72. Press the [Enter] key at the end of the last paragraph, and paste again on the new line. Then, click the Paste Options button and click the Keep Text Only button in the menu. All formatting, including the paragraph style, is removed from the pasted text. Note that the original font is retained. Finding and Replacing Text 73. Without any text selected, click the Replace button in the Editing group on the Home tab of the ribbon. The Find and Replace dialog box is displayed with the Replace tab in the dialog box current. 74. Click in the Find what: text box, and enter second. Click in the Replace with: dialog box, and enter third.

7 75. Click the More>> button to show expanded options in the dialog box, as shown in Figure Make sure the cursor (vertical bar) is in the Replace with: text box, then click the Format button, and click Font in the drop-down menu. The Replace Font dialog box is displayed, which contains the same options as the standard Font dialog box. 77. Applying what you have learned, set the font to be all caps, bold italic, and red. Then, click the OK button to return to the Find and Replace dialog box. Notice the formatting is specified below the Replace with: text box. 78. Click the Replace All button to replace all instances of second with third. A message appears indicating that one instance was replaced. The third paragraph in the document now begins with This is the third paragraph. and the word this is red, all caps, and bold italic. Also notice the Find and Replace dialog box remains open. 79. Click in the Find what: text box, and enter Yesterday. Click in the Replace with: dialog box, and enter Every day. TIP If the entire paragraph is selected when the Clear All Formatting command is used, the underlying style will also be removed, and the paragraph will revert to the Normal style. 80. Click the No Formatting button in the expanded area of the dialog box, and click the Replace All button to replace all instances of Yesterday with Every day. 81. How many instances of Yesterday were replaced? 82. Close the Find and Replace dialog box. Paragraph Line Spacing 83. Click anywhere in the third paragraph (with the dropped cap) to place the insertion point there. 84. Using the ruler, move the Left Indent marker (square) and Right Indent marker (upward-pointing triangle) to the edge of the paper. This sets the left and right margins for the paragraph to zero. 85. Click the Line and Paragraph Spacing button in the Paragraph group on the Home tab of the ribbon to display a drop-down menu. TIP Clicking the No Formatting button clears any formatting that has been specified. If this button is not clicked, the specified formatting will be applied.

8 86. Click 2.0 in the drop-down menu. This overrides the style and changes the line spacing for the paragraph to double spaced. 87. Right-click anywhere in the third paragraph, and click Paragraph... in the shortcut menu. The Paragraph dialog box is displayed. 88. Click the Line spacing: drop-down list, and click Exactly in the list. 89. Click in the At: text box, and enter Click the OK button to close the dialog box. Exactly 20 points of spacing between each line is applied to this paragraph. The line spacing includes the font height, as shown in Figure 2-7. Adding a Text Box 91. Click at the end of the last line of text in the document, and press the [Enter] key to start a new paragraph. 92. Click the Choose a Text Box button in the Text group on the Insert tab of the ribbon, and click Simple Text Box in the drop-down menu. A new text box is placed on the page. A text box contains text and can float around the page. It may have a border and a background. 93. Replace the default text in the text box with Paragraph Skills. 94. Click the border of the text box, hold, and drag the text box to the middle of the third paragraph (with the dropped cap). Notice how the paragraph text wraps around the text box. 95. Click the Text Direction button in the Text group on the Format on-demand tab in the ribbon. 96. In the drop-down menu, choose the correct option so the text runs vertically reading from top to bottom, as shown in Figure Click the drop-down arrow next to the Shape Outline button in the Shape Styles group on the Format on-demand tab in the ribbon, and click No Outline in the drop-down menu. This removes the line, or border, from around the text box. 98. Use the handles to resize the text box so it is only as large as the text. Handles are small squares or dots that appear at key points on the selected object and can be used to resize or rotate the object. 99. Click the drop-down arrow next to the Shape Fill button in the Shape Styles group on the Format ondemand tab in the ribbon, and select the color Blue, Accent 5 in the drop-down menu Save your work, and close the file.
