RibbonRibbon

The Word 2007 Ribbon is a bar across the top of the window that contains tabbed pages of commands and icons/buttons.

Functions as a combination of menu bar and toolbar, offering tabbed "pages" of buttons, lists, and commands.

The ribbon is designed to help you quickly find the commands that you need to complete a task.

Ribbon (cont…)Ribbon (cont…)

The ribbon is divided into eight tabs by default, and each tab is a selection of groups that show related items together. Command buttons in each group carry out a command or display a menu of commands.

As you can see, similar commands are grouped together making the ribbon very task oriented. The more popular commands are available directly on each tab; you can directly access the command by clicking on the command icons/buttons.

Here are the elements in a Word 2007 ribbon:– Ribbon: The whole bar, including all of the tabs.– Tab: A tabbed page of the Ribbon such as Home, Insert, Page Layout, References,

mailings, Review, View, Add-Ins. Every tab contains several groups and every group has it own command icons.

Word Drop CapsWord Drop Caps

A drop cap is the first letter of a report, article, chapter, or story that appears in a larger than normal and more interesting font than the other characters. So it occupies several lines of the paragraph.

Create a large capital letter at the beginning of the paragraph.

Drop caps can be used to add style to a document and draw attention to something in the document. Maybe you are not aware that you seems the drop cap before, just you don't know that it's a drop cap.

There are basically two styles of drop caps– dropped style– in margin style

A style is a set of formatting instructions. In another term, it is a way to give a name to a group of formatting attributes such as font formatting (color, size, etc), paragraph formatting (alignment, spacing, etc).

Microsoft Word 2007 allows you to create your own Word styles and also come with a number of built-in styles. Among the most important built-in styles are the standard heading styles: Heading 1, Heading 2, Heading 3, etc.

For example, you might use Title Heading for chapter titles, Heading 1 for section headings, Heading 2 for the sub-headings, etc.

Once you have defined a style, you can quickly and easily format text simply by applying the style without the need to apply text formatting individually. Styles can save a lot of time and help insure consistency in your documents.

With the headings styles, Word can automatically create a table of contents (TOC), and you also can use headings to define cross-references. Here we show you how to use styles to create a TOC later.

These styles are on the Home tab, in the Styles group.

A theme in Word 2007 consists of three elements:– Colors: Each theme consists of a set of four colors for text and background, six

colors for accents, and two colors for hyperlinks. You can change any single color element or all of them.

– Fonts: Two fonts are chosen as part of the theme - one for the heading font use for headings and a second for the body font used for general text entry. The default fonts used in Word for a new document are Calibri for body text and Cambria for headings.

– Design effects: These effects are applied to any graphics, pictures, charts or design elements in your document. The effects can include lines (borders), fills, and effects such as 3D, shading, gradation, drop-shadows, and other design subtleties.

Create table in Word 2007 is not difficult, no matter how many columns or rows. But getting your column widths "as you wish" can be challenging task.

For instance, what if you want a ten-column table with the first two columns a certain width, and the rest of the columns sharing the remaining horizontal space?

Here's an easy way to define that table setup. All you need to do is set the wider columns, and then use the Split Cells option to create the rest. Here's you an easy way to get the desired result.

If you know how to create/draw a table, you also must know how to delete a table, or even delete a table columns or rows. Actually there is various ways to delete column/row of a table, but here we show you one of the easiest ways to perform that.

A table of contents (TOC) is very useful for a long document. For example, you can use TOC to quickly browse through what are the contents of a long document.

Adding a TOC to your document is simple if you have included styles (either build-in style such as Heading 1, Heading 2, etc or custom styles)

Many people try to create a table of contents manually, without using the built-in process in Microsoft Word. It's not easy and the spacing never comes out quite right, does it?

This tutorial demonstrates how to create a TOC. There are two steps you take to create a TOC:

1. Prepare your document by assigning heading styles that you want to appear in the TOC.2. Apply those headings into the TOC.

After the heading styles are applied, it's time to collect them all together in the TOC. This is where Word does the work for you.

First of all, what is a clip art? Clip art is a collection of images (art and pictures), that you're free to use in your documents.

In most cases, adding clip art to your document is the same as inserting a picture, although you're using images from a clip art library rather than graphics files on your hard drive.

The following will show you how you can easily insert a clip art to your document. Also, you can arrange those clip arts properly using the Microsoft Clip Organizer.

This tool can easily rearrange the collections of clip art images, pictures, sounds, and movie clips conveniently available regardless of where they are actually stored.
