Key Points.


● Quick Styles and style sets make it simple to apply combinations of character and
paragraph formatting to give your documents a professional look.
● The same document can look very different depending on the theme applied to
it. Colors, fonts, and effects can be combined to create just the look you want.
● You can format characters with an almost limitless number of combinations of
font, size, style, and effect. For best results, resist the temptation to use more
than a handful of combinations.
● You can change the look of paragraphs by varying their indentation, spacing, and
alignment and by setting tab stops and applying borders and shading. Use these
formatting options judiciously to create a balanced, uncluttered look.
● Bulleted and numbered lists are a great way to present information in an easy-to-read,
easy-to-understand format. If the built-in bulleted and numbered formats don’t
provide what you need, you can define your own formats.
