CERTIFICATE IN MASTER MICROSOFT WORD ( S-AC-0007 )

Creating and Managing Documents

This is the very initial step to start where you first learn to prepare and manage a document. Each Word document you write, whether it's a personal letter, a sitcom script, or a microbiology thesis, begins and finishes in the same manner. You begin by generating a document, and you conclude by saving it. Sounds simple, but to efficiently manage your Word documents, you need to know more than just the essentials. This chapter describes the various ways to build a new Word document, such as beginning from an existing document or adding text to a predesigned template, and how to select the optimal method for your specific project.

You will also learn how to work more efficiently and effectively by modifying your document's display. You can utilise Word's Outline view for brainstorming, then switch to Print view when you're ready to create a printed copy. This chapter will get you up and running with these core tools so that you can concentrate on the essentials: your words.

A few essential parts of the syllabus are:

•        Creating a document

•        Navigating through the document

•        Formatting the document

•        Customising options and views for the document

•        Printing and saving the document

Formatting Test, Paragraphs, and Sections

Formatting is the art of creating functional and appealing papers. Good formatting identifies the various sections of your material and facilitates comprehension for your audience. You may format virtually any aspect of your text, from individual characters to full paragraphs. The body text should be legible and easy on the eyes. Your document's headings should be large and bold, as well as consistent throughout. Important words must be pronounced with emphasis. Separate quotations and citations from the main content. Sections should also be arranged in order.

This chapter begins with the fundamentals: how to format individual characters and words by picking typefaces and bolding, italicising, or underlining them. You learn how to structure paragraphs with indents and spacing, as well as how to regulate how Word separates words and lines within a paragraph. Finally, you will discover how to replicate and reuse formatting using Format Painter and style settings.

A few essential parts of the syllabus are:

•        Inserting Paragraphs and Texts

•        Formatting Paragraphs and Texts

•        Ordering and Grouping Paragraphs and Texts

Creating Tables and Lists

Creating a table of figures, similar to a table of contents, enables you to list and arrange the figures, images, and tables in your Word document. Tables are frequently used to structure and present data, but they have many other applications as well. You can align numbers in columns and sort and perform computations on them using tables. You may also develop engaging page layouts using tables. Word's numbered lists are handy for a variety of document kinds, including forms, registers, and even an outline. Word can format numbered lists automatically, or you may format them manually.

A few essential parts of the syllabus are:

•        Creating a Table

•        Modifying a Table

•        Creating and Modifying a List

Creating and Managing References

You can access the simple reference system that is built into Word by clicking the "References" button on the ribbon. You will then be able to generate a bibliography at the conclusion of the content. This feature enables you to add references to a document. The references are kept in a master list, which may then be applied to additional papers so that they too contain references.

A few essential parts of the syllabus are:

•        Organising and Maintaining Reference Markers.

•        Simple Reference Management and Creation

Incorporate and Format Graphic Elements

Graphic elements provide relationships, hierarchy, and emphasis through visual representation. Banners, Backgrounds, aggregators, glass, shadows, separators, and handles are all examples of this type of component. The inclusion of visual components in many papers can help reinforce concepts, catch the attention of readers, or just improve the document's aesthetic appeal. A document can have images, shapes, text fields, and diagrams.

A few essential parts of the syllabus are:

?  Inserting the Graphic Elements

?  Formatting the Graphic Elements

?  Inserting and Formatting SmartArt Graphics
