Word allows you to create a table within your document without having to open external applications. On the Insert tab, Press the icon labeled as a table. From this point, you can use the box provided to create a table with a max of 10 columns and 8 rows.
However, if you want more a table larger than 10 x 8, word allows you to manually insert this table. To do this, you again press on the icon labeled as table and use the option 'Insert table' from there you can specify the number of rows and columns.
Everything that you use for formatting within Word is classed as a hidden character. When you start a new paragraph, a single character will be used to create the space you want, a hidden character will be in place of the paragraph location. If you select to view hidden characters you will see, the paragraph marks and special formatting options such as page break.
Press on the Show/Hide icon to view the hidden characters.
Within word, by default, you will not see a background only a colour. You can add different styles of backgrounds to your word to make it look more interesting, while this feature doesn't change how word functions in the slightest it is nice knowing you can change elements of word to your preference. Within the GIF, Geometry is selected as the style but you can pick from the list shown to change the little design in the top right corner of your software.
If you wish to highlight text, press the arrow to start the drop-down menu.
Once the colour is selected, press abc and then select your text. To end the highlighting press abc again.
In word, you can type many different symbols ranging from the standard punctuation to the copyright symbol.
How to quickly write special characters in word:
1. To start typing a special character they require brackets. Opening bracket ( and closing bracket ).
2. Decide which symbol you want to use. In this example I will show you how to create the copyright symbol.
3. Type the letter c in between the brackets. ©
Within word, you can quickly remove all formatting from text, where it be information that you have copied from another location or from within the document. To quickly perform this task, on the Home Tab you will notice within the section listed as ‘Font’ you and see an eraser with the letter A directly next to it. Pressing on this icon while you are next to the text you want to be affected will completely remove all formatting such as colour size and font.
Quick parts are a way of storing content that you want to reuse, such as images or lines of text. It may also include document properties such as the author of the document and title for example and AutoText. Primarily these are called building blocks.
To create a new Quick Part, you select the information you wish to keep and navigate to the Insert tab. Open Quick Parts and save the selection to the quick part gallery. Your selection is then stored in the gallery.
In word, there is many different functions that have multiple actions, for example double clicking on a word will highlight that specific word while double clicking on a blank space will move the cursor to this area.
This is exactly how to type anywhere on the page. When double clicking within the body of the document, you will see that the cursor has moved position to where you previously double clicked.
How to type anywhere on a document:
1.Double click in an empty space on the document
2. Start typing and the text will appear next to where you double clicked.
3. Repeat step 1 & 2 if you wish to add more text elsewhere on the page.
In Word, there are plenty of add-ons that you can put on, you may or may not want these add-ons being enabled as they can slow down your software. To disable them, go to File and Options. Select Add-ons and press on the COMS Add-ins 'Go' at the bottom. By default, this will open a dialog box with all the enabled add-ins that you can simply untick and your software will go back to normal.
When you open word, using the top ribbon you will see different sections. For example, Home or Design. To add a watermark to your document, visit the design section and under page background you will be delighted to see the drop-down menu listed as Watermark. Word has different option that are standard that can be chosen, such as draft diagonally or confidentially horizontally.
When you are wanting to change fonts in Word, you can type in the font you want to use or select from a drop-down menu.
If you want to change the specific text that you have already written, select the text and type/use the drop-down menu for the desired font. Alternatively, if you start a new line/paragraph and change the font before you start typing, the text will be using the new font until you repeat the process of starting a new line and changing the text.
