Your Ruler Will Tell You What You Need To Know. Just Take A Look...

Your Ruler Will Tell You What You Need To Know.  Just Take A Look...



As part of our set up routine ("Getting Ready") that we use with all of our students, we have them check that their margins are 1 inch Top, Bottom, Left and Right.  But, if you look at your ruler when you open a document, your right margin (which looks like home plate in baseball) will tell you right away what is going on with your margins.

1.  If the Right Margin is sitting at 6.0 on your ruler then you know that your Left and Right Margin is set at 1.25 and needs to be reset to 1.0 on the Left and Right.

2.  If the Right Margin is sitting at 6.5 then you know right away that your Margins are at 1.0 on the Left and Right and you are good to go.

3.   What, you don't see your Ruler?  Under the "View Tab" on the left side make sure that Ruler Box is checked.

Removing My Continuous Section Breaks Is now Destroying My Next Page Section Breaks A lot of you will appreciate this particular write-up.  At one time or another, you have had this happen. I don't believe this is a basic or advanced thing.  This is just one of the many things that can drive you crazy. Scenario :   You run an Index of Terms and realize that you have placed your cursor in the wrong location and now you have an Index of Terms in an unintended location.  You already had saved the document, so you can't undo it.  As you know, a completed Index of Terms is surrounded by two "Continuous Section Breaks".   Note :  Normally, if the Index of Terms is generated in the proper place, the Continuous Breaks cause No Harm.   Now the fun begins.   1.  As you attempt to remove the Continuous Section Breaks, they then eat up the previous " Next Page " type Section Break and befor...

Sizing Up Your Documents When Setting Them Up From Scratch!

Sizing Up Your Documents When Setting Them Up From Scratch! Scenario : An attorney brings to you a document that is composed of hand written pages, typed up pages that will be inserts, some of the typed up pages have document numbers where you can grab the material without having to type the insert related material.   The attorney has asked you to please create a TOC, TOA and Index of Terms page.  You are also informed that there will be an Exhibit A and B in the back of the documen t.  So knowing this info upfront, how do we go about segmenting the document into its proper sections? Of course we need a cover page.  Most probably it will need a border and will be centered vertically on the screen.  Therefore we need a Section Break “Next Page ” after our cover page.
