Chapter 3: Managing Text Documents With Writer

The Paragraph Style dialogue opens, with various tabs. Click on the Font tab and specify

the type, size, and style of the font.

Note: If one wants to emphasize a particular passage in a letter, simply select the text and click the Bold or Italic

icon. To format only a single word, simply place the cursor anywhere in the word and click Bold or Italic.

Make any other necessary changes, then click the Save Document icon and close the

document template.

Note: When creating a template, remember not to type a text for a particular letter. The main purpose of a

template is to define the general layout of a document. Use the documents based on the template to add text for

a letter.
