Formatting the text

Formatting of the text - the procedure of execution of the page of the text.

It is carried out by means of the menu of the Format or the panel of Formatting.                   

The main methods of formatting include:

Choice and change of a font fonts;

Management of font sizes;

Management of tracing and color of a font;

Management of an alignment method;

Creation of the marked and enumerated lists;

Management of paragraph parameters.

 

Control of parameters of the paragraph

The paragraph - a fragment of the text which process of input comes to an end with pressing a key of input <enter>. Except the mode of alignment the following settings of the paragraph are configured:

space size at the left (from the left field);

space size on the right (from the right field);

size of a space of the first line of the paragraph (new paragraph);

interval size (beating between paragraphs) before the paragraph and after him.

For printing documents space size for the main text as rules, don't set, (the necessary provision of the text are defined by width of fields), but her is set for additional materials and headings if they aren't aligned to the center. In too time the size of a paragraph space is of great importance for Web pages. It is one of very not many parameters of formatting allowed for Web documents therefore he is used very widely.

The role of beating between paragraphs, as well as a role of a space of the first line of the paragraph, consists in visually to select the paragraph. At the same time it is necessary to remember that these means aren't compatible. That is, applying a space of the first line of the paragraph, it isn't necessary to apply beating between paragraphs and vice versa. The combination of these styles is allowed only for the marked and enumerated lists (the main text is made out with a space of the first line, and lists - without him, but with beating between paragraphs).

Usual practice of purpose of a format consists that for documents of simple structure (art) use a space of the first line (it especially important for texts in the Russian and German languages), and for documents of complex structure (technical) and documents in English beating between paragraphs is used. The documents relating to natural-science and humanitarian disciplines are intermediate - by their preparation except the point of view of the author are guided by established practices the settled traditions.

In Web documents apply only beating between paragraphs. The space of the first line in them is usually not used also by communications with the increased difficulties of his creation.

 

Tool for creating lists

In text documents the enumeration of different types of registration lists. When creating lists, each paragraph is considered a separate item in the list and it is assigned a corresponding number or mark. Thus, the process of registration of the list is the formatting of the paragraph. The numbering of the paragraphs list is made automatically, and the edit in case of changes in the location of the paragraph, it is automatically renumber.

The following types of lists.

Numbered - list items (paragraphs) are numbered in order.

Bulleted - list items are marked, any designated symbol.

Multilevel list - the list items are numbered with the display of their level.

Special making bulleted and numbered lists are rarely used in the artistic documents and personal correspondence, but in official documents, especially Web documents, it is used very widely. In Web documents making bulleted lists are particularly enhanced through the use of dedicated graphic markers, styles which must be combined thematically with the content and design of documents.

To create lists you must first run setup, then log in and finally out of it. The setting is performed in the dialog List, open the Format>List. This window has three tabs: list, numbered list and a Bulleted Multilevel list. As controls here are examples of the preparation of the lists. To select, simply click on the chosen sample.

The entry in the list can be performed automatically or on command. To automatically create a bulleted list, write a string with input character <*>. At the end of the line and press ENTER the symbol <*> is automatically converted to a marker, and on the next line marker will be installed automatically. To automatically create a numbered list, start the line with the numbers, after which there are a period and a space, e.g.<1.>, <2.> etc. This method allows to start the numbering at any point (not necessarily with unit).

To list the command buttons, the Numbering and Markers presented on the Formatting bar.

For lists with a very deep nesting levels (more than three) you can configure the style of each level. This is the command button to Change the tab Multilevel List dialog box.
