Find your way through long documents with
the new Document Navigation pane and
Search
In Word 2010, you can quickly find your way around long documents. You can easily reorganize your
documents by dragging and dropping sections instead of copying and pasting. And you can find content by
using incremental search, so you do not need to know exactly what you are searching for to find it.
In Word 2010 you can do the following:
Move between headings in your document by clicking on the parts of the document map.
Collapse levels of the outline to hide nested headings, so you can work easily with the map even in
deeply structured and complicated long documents.
Type text into the search box to find your place instantly.

Drag and drop headings within your document to rearrange the structure. You can also delete, cut, or
copy headings and their content.
Easily promote or demote a given heading, or a heading and all of its nested headings, up or down
within the hierarchy.
Add new headings to your document to build a basic outline or insert new sections without having to
scroll around in the document.
Stay aware of the content being edited by others by browsing the headings that contain a co-
authoring indicator.
See thumbnails of all the pages in your document and click on them to move through your document.
Adjust the spaces between lines or
paragraphs
Line spacing determines the amount of vertical space between the lines of text in a paragraph. Paragraph spacing
determines the amount of space above or below a paragraph.
Line spacing in Word 2010
In Microsoft Word 2010, the default spacing for most Quick Style sets is 1.15 between lines and a blank line between
paragraphs. The default spacing in Office Word 2003 documents is 1.0 between lines and no blank line between
paragraphs.

Change the line spacing
The easiest way to change the line spacing for an entire document is to apply a Quick Style set that uses the spacing
that you want. If you want to change the line spacing for a portion of the document, you can select the paragraphs
and change their line spacing settings.
USE A STYLE SET TO CHANGE LINE SPACING FOR AN ENTIRE DOCUMENT
1. On the Home tab, in the Styles group, click Change Styles.
2. Point to Style Set, and point to the various style sets. Using the live preview, notice how the line spacing changes
from one style set to the next.
For example, the Traditional and Word 2003 style sets use single-spacing. The Manuscript style set uses
double spacing.
3. When you see spacing that you like, click the name of the style set.
CHANGE THE LINE SPACING IN A PORTION OF THE DOCUMENT
1. Select the paragraphs for which you want to change the line spacing.
2. On the Home tab, in the Paragraph group, click Line Spacing.
CFB 08/31/2010
Page 6
3. Do one of the following:
Click the number of line spaces that you want.
For example, click 1.0 to single-space with the spacing that is used in earlier versions of Word. Click
2.0 to double-space the selected paragraph. Click 1.15 to single-space with the spacing that is used
in Word 2010.
Click Line Spacing Options, and then select the options that you want under Spacing. See the following list
of available options for more information.
LINE SPACING OPTIONS
Single This option accommodates the largest font in that line, plus a small amount of extra space. The
amount of extra space varies depending on the font that is used.
1.5 lines This option is one-and-one-half times that of single line spacing.
Double This option is twice that of single line spacing.
At least This option sets the minimum line spacing that is needed to fit the largest font or graphic on the
line.
Exactly This option sets fixed line spacing, expressed in points. For example, if the text is in a 10-point
font, you can specify 12 points as the line spacing.
Multiple This option sets line spacing that can be expressed in numbers greater than 1. For example,
setting line spacing to 1.15 will increase the space by 15 percent, and setting line spacing to 3 increases
the space by 300 percent (triple spacing).
NOTE If a line contains a large text character, graphic, or formula, Word increases the spacing for that line. To
space all lines evenly within a paragraph, use exact spacing and specify an amount of space that is large enough to
fit the largest character or graphic in the line. If items appear cut off, increase the amount of spacing.

Change the spacing before or after paragraphs
The easiest way to change the spacing between paragraphs for an entire document is to apply a Quick Style set that
uses the spacing that you want. If you want to change the spacing between paragraphs for a portion of the document,
you can select the paragraphs and change their spacing-before and spacing-after settings.
USE A STYLE SET TO CHANGE PARAGRAPH SPACING FOR AN ENTIRE DOCUMENT
1. On the Home tab, in the Styles group, click Change Styles.
2. Point to Style Set, and point to the various style sets. Using the live preview, notice how the line spacing changes
from one style set to the next.
For example, the Word 2003 style set inserts no extra space between paragraphs and a small amount of
space above headings. The Word 2010 style set adds space between paragraphs and also adds more
space above headings.
3. When you see spacing that you like, click the name of the style set.
USE THE PARAGRAPH SPACING OPTIONS TO CHANGE THE SPACING
After you apply a style set, you can customize the spacing by using the new paragraph spacing options. When you
click one of these options, it overrides the line and spacing settings of the style set.
1. On the Home tab, in the Styles group, click Change Styles.
2. Point to Paragraph Spacing, and then click the option that you want.

as the default. The default font applies to new documents that are based on the active template, usually
Normal.dotm. You can create different templates to use different default font settings.
NOTE In Word, you can also quickly and easily format an entire document to give it a professional and
modern look by applying a document theme. A document theme is a set of formatting choices that can include
a color scheme (a set of colors), a font scheme (a set of heading and body text fonts), and an effects scheme
(a set of lines and fill effects).
Set the default font
Start with a blank document, or if your document already contains text that is formatted with the properties that
you want to use, select that text.

Create a table of contents
You create a table of contents by applying heading styles — for example, Heading 1, Heading 2, and Heading
3 — to the text that you want to include in the table of contents. Microsoft Office Word searches for those
headings and then inserts the table of contents into your document.
When you create a table of contents this way, you can automatically update it if you make changes in your
document.
Microsoft Office Word 2007 provides a gallery of automatic table of contents styles. Mark the table of contents
entries, and then click the table of contents style that you want from the gallery of options.
You can also create a custom table of contents with the options you choose and any custom styles that you've
applied by using the Table of Contents dialog box.
Mark entries for a table of contents
The easiest way to create a table of contents is to use the built-in heading styles. You can also create a table of
contents that is based on the custom styles that you have applied. Or you can assign the table of contents
levels to individual text entries.
MARK ENTRIES BY USING BUILT-IN HEADING STYLES
1. Select the text that you want to appear in the table of contents.
2. On the Home tab, in the Styles group, click the style that you want.
For example, if you selected text that you want to style as a main heading, click the style called
Heading 1 in the Quick Style gallery.
NOTES

Save as PDF or XPS
Sometimes you want to save files so that they cannot be modified, but you still want them to be easy to share
and print. With Microsoft Office 2010 programs that you can convert files into PDF or XPS formats without
needing additional software or add-ins. Use this when you want a document that:
Looks the same on most computers
Has a small file size
Complies with an industry format
Examples include resumes, legal documents, newsletters, files intended to only be read and printed,
documents intended for professional printing.
IMPORTANT Once you have saved a document as a PDF or XPS file, you cannot convert it back to a
Microsoft Office file format without specialized software or a third-party add-in.
What are PDF and XPS formats?
Portable Document Format (PDF) PDF preserves document formatting and enables file sharing.
When the PDF format file is viewed online or printed, it retains the format that you intended. Data in
the file cannot be easily changed, and can be explicitly set to prohibit editing. The PDF format is also
useful for documents that will be reproduced using commercial printing methods. PDF is accepted as
a valid format to many agencies and organizations, and viewers are available on a wider variety of
platforms than XPS.
IMPORTANT To view a PDF file, you must have a PDF reader installed on your computer such as the
XML Paper Specification (XPS) XPS is a platform-independent technology that also preserves
document formatting and enables file sharing. When the XPS file is viewed online or printed, it retains
CFB 08/31/2010
Page 48
exactly the format that you intended, and the data in the file cannot be easily changed. XPS embeds
all fonts in the file so they appear as intended, regardless of whether the specified font is available on
the recipient's computer, and has more precise image and color rendering on the recipient's computer
than PDF.

Illustrate your ideas
Word 2010 brings many graphic enhancements to your work, so you can easily make the impact you want.
New SmartArt graphic picture layouts
In Word 2010, you can use the new SmartArt graphics picture layouts to tell your story with photographs or
other images. Just insert your pictures in the SmartArt shapes of your picture layout diagram. Each shape also
has a caption where you can add descriptive text.
Even better, if you already have pictures in your document, you can quickly convert them to a SmartArt graphic,
just like you can with text.
Using this layout to create a SmartArt graphic is simple:
1. Insert the SmartArt graphic picture layout.
2. Add your photographs.
3. Write descriptive text.
Word includes several different picture layouts to choose from.

New artistic effects
With Word 2010, you can now apply sophisticated "artistic" effects to your picture to make the picture look
more like a sketch, drawing, or painting. It's an easy way to enhance your images without using additional
photo-editing programs.
Some of the 20 new artistic effects include Pencil Sketch, Line Drawing, Watercolor Sponge, Mosaic Bubbles,
Glass, Pastels Smooth, Plastic Wrap, Photocopy, and Paint Strokes.
Picture corrections
You can now transform your images into compelling, vibrant visuals by fine-tuning the color intensity
(saturation) and color tone (temperature) of a picture. You can also adjust brightness, contrast, sharpness, and
blurriness, or you can recolor the picture to better match your document content and to make your work pop.
Automatic background removal of pictures
Another advanced picture editing option in Word 2010 is the ability to automatically remove unwanted portions
of a picture, such as the background, to highlight the subject of the picture or to remove distracting detail.
Better picture compression and cropping
Use the new and improved picture-editing tools to trim images and get just the look that you want. Now you
have better control of the image quality and compression trade-offs so that you can make the right choice for
the medium (print, screen, or e-mail) that your document is used for.
Inserting screenshots
Quickly add screenshots to capture and incorporate visual illustrations into your work in Word 2010. After you
add the screenshot, you can use the tools on the Picture Tools tab to edit and enhance the screenshot. When
you reuse your screenshots across documents, take advantage of the Paste Preview feature to see what your
additions will look like before you drop them in.

Recover unsaved work
It is now easier to recover a Word document if you close your file without saving, or if you want to review or
return to an earlier version of the file you're already working in. As with earlier versions of Word, enabling
AutoRecover will save versions while you are working in your file at the interval you select.
Now, you can keep the last autosaved version of a file in case you accidentally close that file without saving, so
that you can easily restore it the next time that you open the file. Also, while you are working in your file, you
can access a list of the autosaved files from the Microsoft Office Backstage view.
Work better together
Word 2010 helps you to work with your colleagues more efficiently. Word 2010 also includes features to keep
your information more secure when you share your work, and to keep your computer more secure from files
that might not be safe.
Work on the same document at the same time
In Word 2010, you can work together right within Word. You do not have to send with e-mail attachments or
save draft documents with names such as TSP_final_2_FINAL.docx. Instead, just open your document, and
start to work. You can see who else is working with you, and where they are editing.
When you open a shared document, Word automatically caches it so that you can make changes to it offline,
and then Word automatically syncs your changes when you come back online. When you must work away from
the office, you no longer have to worry about saving local copies or manually merging your changes into the
server document when you return to your office.
In Word 2010, multiple authors can work on a document at the same time, and Office Web applications let you
work on your documents.
Multiple authors can edit a single document at the same time and stay in sync with each others' changes.
Authors can block access to document regions while they are working on them.
