Every time you close a document, Word remembers the page where you left off. The next time you open the file, you will be prompted to start from the same place. Comfortable? No words!

Now imagine: you have a multi-page document, such as an annual report or a thesis. You are on the nth page and you see the facts that you need to double-check further down the text. You have to dive deep, so you need to write down the number of the current sheet somewhere. How to go back without a reminder?

Leave the cursor and gradually move down. To return to the "anchor", press the key combination Shift + F5.

This command will instantly move you to the line where you placed the cursor ahead of time.

2. How to fill a document with random text

Sometimes Word needs a random array of lines and paragraphs. For example, to try out a new feature and show it to colleagues. You can dial it in three ways: actively tapping on the keys for a couple of minutes, download or set a short command.

Type =lorem(2,3) and press Enter to have Word create two paragraphs of three sentences. The numbers in brackets can be absolutely anything.

The filler is also useful if you are presenting a layout and do not want the text to distract attention from it.

3. How to use AutoText

A separate file with company details or passport data is no longer needed. Word has a piggy bank of text passages that you can use when you need it. This is useful in office work full of standard expressions and template letters.

Select the text and press the key combination Ctrl + F3 - the fragment will be saved as autotext. Paste it into the document with Ctrl + Shift + F3.

AutoText is located on the "Insert" tab in the "Text" group in the "Quick Blocks" subsection. Please note: AutoText can be sent to different parts of the document or placed in headers and footers.

4. How to quickly delete words, sentences, paragraphs

It is said that the average length of a sentence in Russian is approximately 10 words. The average length of a word is slightly more than 5 letters. It turns out that in order to erase one sentence with the BackSpace key, you need to press it about 60 times. If you don't feel sorry for the button, think about your time.

Hold Ctrl and press BackSpace to delete the entire word. Hold Alt and press BackSpace to bring back an accidentally erased word.

To remove larger fragments, you can not do without a quick selection. For a whole sentence, this is one click with the mouse held down Ctrl, and for a paragraph - a triple click on any word.

5. How to calm your eyes when reading for a long time

In general, there is a dark gray theme. Some users find it more gentle on the eyes: the white background does not hit the eyes so much if there is a contrast frame around it. In addition, the text editor offers to make reading long documents easier by changing the color of the pages.

Switch to the View tab and switch to Reading View. Expand the advanced options to make the background black or light brown.

Here you can also set the column width or display a panel with notes.

6. How to replace all pictures in a document in one fell swoop

Let's not be mistaken if we assume that 9 out of 10 Word users cannot imagine their lives without the Find and Replace function. At the same time, almost none of them knows about its additional features.

Copy the image to the clipboard, open a text editor and bring up the Find and Replace dialog box (Ctrl + H). Enter ^g in the Find field and ^c in the Replace with field. Click on "Replace All" to remove all pictures from the document and put the contents of the clipboard in their place.

We are lost in the assumptions why this is necessary. By the way, the same feeling arises in a person if he turns to the Creator for the meaning of life. :)

7. How to use the calculator

Word has a good command of the school arithmetic curriculum. It is very easy to verify this: just display the calculator icon on the quick access panel.

Go to "More commands" in the shortcut menu. Switch to "All commands" and find the item "Calculate". Add it to the Quick Access Toolbar. The circle icon will be inactive until you select a math expression. See the result of the calculation in the lower left corner.

As you can see, the text editor knows the order of the math and understands that 2 + 2 × 2 does not equal 8.

We hope we were able to surprise you. If not, try to surprise us yourself in the comments.

A new version of the famous Microsoft office suite has been released for a long time. Updates have not bypassed the powerful Word text editor. In this article, using the example of compiling instructions, we will consider the main innovations and changes in this component.

The beginning of time

For those not yet accustomed to the new versions of Office's ribbon menu, the bad news is that Microsoft intends to roll it out everywhere. But it takes only a couple of days to work with such a tape, as you completely wean yourself from the old idea of ​​\u200b\u200bthe office. In Office 2010, developers have paid even more attention to the ribbon, significantly redesigning the start page, making the File tab. It contains all the settings and options for Word.

The first item "Information" reflects all the properties of the document, as well as the parameters of its protection and restrictions on working with it. The second is "Last". All recently opened documents are collected here, and on the right side there is a list of places in which they are located, the so-called quick access to file location directories is integrated.

The third item is "Create". This is a collection of templates that contains various blanks: envelopes, questionnaires, resumes and much more. In addition to the built-in templates, the user has the opportunity to find the blanks he needs on the official website of the company; a search field on the site is built in specifically for this.

One of the most notable is the "Print" item, which greatly simplifies the work with printers. All the main print management options are placed on this page, so the user does not have to dig through a bunch of dialog boxes to find the “those” settings. Everything is clearly laid out on the shelves. The number of copies, printer selection, print options - it's all in plain sight.

The last "Save and send" item is an innovation that was not in Office 2007. Starting from new version Office Microsoft has decided to create the most favorable environment for the transfer of documents and the creation of documents with shared access. Now several people can work on the same document - of course, this finding is not new, but still it deserves praise. And it became easier to transfer files to colleagues: automatic conversion to PDF, sending to the specified e-mail address.

Text Formatting Features in Word 2010

The new version of Word 2010 has significantly expanded the possibilities of text formatting. The main example is the creation of glowing text, the formation of shadows and reflections. This module is called "Animation Options", it is very similar to all the familiar Word Art, which was present in previous versions, but has significant differences. Text that has one of the animation types applied to it - glow, shadow, reflection - can be edited like any other text in the document. That is, the program does not recognize it as an image, but as plain text.

To apply one of these settings to text, you need to select a section of text, go to "Home → Font" and on the already open tab, find the letter "A", highlighted in blue. In the drop-down menu, you will be offered one of the design styles, as well as separate options for shadow, glow and reflection. These effects are similar in function to the same effects that previously could only be applied to images.

The second text formatting improvement is the ability to format OpenType fonts. These fonts were developed by Microsoft and Adobe and until recently were used only in professional applications. With their help, it became possible to work with ligatures (several interconnected characters), as well as changing existing fonts. To do this, in the "Font" dialog box on the "Advanced" page, a special section has been created for setting up OpenType fonts.

There is also such a thing as stylistic sets. These are new features for editing fonts that affect the characteristics of characters - for example, their elongation. Choosing one of the stylistic options, you change the font a little, thereby choosing the best and most liked.

Let's shine

An example of preparing a document is an instruction for working with a Word text editor. In our case, the instruction is taken from the official Microsoft website and will consist of separate articles, which in total will make it up. First, copy the text from the company's website. In Word 2010, the paste function has been improved, when the user clicks on the paste shortcut, he can quickly select the parameters of the inserted object: keep the original formatting, merge the formatting, keep only the text. If you press the Ctrl key after pasting, you can use the arrows to switch the paste mode, immediately observing the result. The Enter key is a selection confirmation.

All basic text editing settings are located on the "Home" tab. The first thing we'll do is change the font of the text in the Font section to Times New Roman and set its size to 14.

Next, we choose a one-and-a-half interval. The "spacing" button is located in the "Paragraph" section and is an icon with several lines and two vertical arrows. Select the text and click on this button, after which a list will appear, consisting of the numerical parameters of the line spacing - set the value to 1.5.

In order for the text in the document to be nice and not look torn, it needs to be aligned. For the design of abstracts, articles and other documents for the main text, "Just alignment" is most often used. To apply alignment to the text, you need to select it and click on the "Justify" button, which is located in the "Paragraph" section. In this case, our text will stretch to the width of the entire page, and its right part will be even.

In order not to do these steps several times in each section, the easiest way is to create new style. To do this, select a fragment of text to which we have already applied the necessary formatting, go to "Styles" and, having expanded the entire list, we find the "Create selected fragment as a new quick style" option.

Click on it and in the window that appears, enter the name of our style, if necessary, you can edit it right there by clicking on the "Edit" button.

After the name is specified, click the "OK" button, and our style will appear in the list of basic Microsoft Word styles. In the future, it can be quickly applied to different parts of the text.

To focus the reader's attention on a particular phrase or important word, they can be highlighted in the text using bold, italic, and underlined text. These elements are located in the "Font" section, the color of the text is also edited here. Using bold text, we highlight the main commands that are first encountered in the instructions so that the user can easily find them in the already read text. We mark in red the information from the “Attention!” category, that is, the main mistakes that a user can make.

But text editing is not over yet. We need to create bulleted or numbered lists in the places where they are needed. To do this, select those lines that should later become a list, and in the "Paragraph" section, click on the "Marker" or "Numbering" button, depending on what we need. This is where we finish editing the text and move on to inserting graphic elements into our document.

Inserting graphic elements

Any instruction should be provided with explanatory pictures, and our instruction is no exception. Therefore, we go to the beginning of the document and, in order, begin to add images to it illustrating the described actions. To insert an image into a document, go to the "Insert" tab, section "Illustrations", here we click the "Picture" button. A explorer will open, with which we must select images to insert. Find it on your computer and click the "OK" button. After that, the image will be inserted in the place where the cursor was located.

You can change the settings of an inserted image at any time. First, select the image by clicking on it with the left mouse button once and align it to the center. When the picture is selected, you can see black cubes in its corners, which indicate the possibility of resizing. If you drag the corners of the picture, it will change its size.

When the element is selected, a special tab “Working with pictures (Format)” is opened, it contains all the image settings. In the "Text Wrap" section, you can choose different options for positioning the picture in the text. In our case, it is necessary to mark “Top and Bottom”, and it is desirable to indent after the image by pressing the Enter key.

In Word 2010, such an interesting feature as "Cropping an image" appeared, with its help you can not use graphic editors, but change the image on the fly, cropping those parts that should not be displayed in the document.

Also in the new version of the popular text editor, the monitor screen capture function has appeared. It is located in the same section as "Picture" and is called "Snapshot". When you run the function, you have to select the area of ​​the screen that you want to capture. After you "cut" part of the screen, this piece will be automatically inserted in the place where the cursor was located. This new feature is very useful when writing instructions or explanatory articles where screenshots need to be inserted into the text. In our instructions, we will actively use this feature and take several such screenshots.

In addition to it, Microsoft has added interesting graphic elements and called them SmartArt. They are ready-made blocks, diagrams, arrows made on high level. When properly grouped, they can be professional illustrations. We will use this function to emphasize the interaction of elements and add a closed circuit to our instruction.

To do this, go to "Insert → Illustrations → SmartArt" and select the scheme you like from the elements that appear. After pressing the "OK" button, this picture will be automatically inserted on the page of the document where the cursor was. There are editable fields for each individual block, which allows you to spend less effort on design, immediately starting editing it. Let's write text in each block, and this will complete the work with SmartArt elements.

Headers and footnotes. To be or not to be?

As in any article, instruction or other material, we need to have footnotes organized and headers and footers created. Footnotes are needed in order to indicate a description of a new term or an explanation of a statement. For example, in term papers and graduation projects for a student, the creation of footnotes and references is the main condition for the design of their scientific work. We will also follow this principle and create some footnotes in our text.

Suppose we have a quote indicating that the new version of Word has the ability to change certain parts of the image - for example, remove the background. First, highlight the sentence that talks about this new feature, then go to the "Links" menu section and select the "Insert footnote" item. After that, a footnote in the form of the number “1” will appear at the end of the sheet, here you can describe the thought in detail or indicate the source. We will write that given function appeared only in the new version and has not been used anywhere before. Now in the text you can see that at the end of the sentence, just above the letters, there is a small number "1", which indicates the number of the footnote. If you hold down the Ctrl key and click on a sentence, we will automatically be redirected to the footnote. Similarly, you can go back from the footnote to the text.

Headers and footers are designed to display brief information at the top or bottom of the page. Such information can be the title of a book, article, author's name, etc. In our tutorial, we will create headers and footers for even and odd pages. To do this, you need to double-click on the top empty area of ​​the page, so we will switch to the header and footer editing mode. On the settings panel, check the item "Different headers and footers for even and odd pages." After that, in addition to the "header" text, Word will mark which group it belongs to (odd or even). On even pages, we indicate "Quick instruction for working in Word 2010", and on odd pages - "Taken from the Microsoft website." You can exit edit mode by clicking on any area outside the header.

In addition to settings for even and odd pages, you can create a custom header and footer for the first page. Since it is almost always the title page, therefore, the footer must be empty. When the footnotes and headers and footers are created, let's proceed to the crucial stage - the creation of the table of contents.

Everything is clear and on the shelves

After the headings are created, the design of the text and its main elements are selected, you can start creating the table of contents. It is organized in just two clicks. Select the "Links" tab from the menu and find the "Contents" there.

From the proposed templates, choose the one you like or edit the style of the table of contents for the design of the document. After we have selected a template, the table of contents will be inserted at the location where the cursor was.

The title page is created in the same way. So, open "Insert → Cover Page". Here, as in the case of the table of contents, you can choose a template. The advantage of ready-made templates is that they help save time and do not have to deal with text formatting and its location on the sheet, everything is done automatically. We indicate the name of our instruction, authorship and year. This completes our work - the instruction is ready for use.

conclusions

In this article, we looked at some of the new features of Microsoft Word 2010, and also learned how to create a guide. Based on the experience gained, you can easily issue a diploma, essay or book - everything is done by analogy with the above example. It only requires the presence of a text editor Word 2010, from partners of the 1Soft network.
