Introduction : Getting Started

Welcome to the Word 2016 Expert workshop. This course begins your journey for creating documents with advanced design, effective references, and custom elements.

Module 1 : Design Advanced Documents

Once you’ve mastered basic documents in Word, you’re ready to create some more complicated products. This module takes a look at two different ways to control how your pages appear – setting page setup layout options and setting paragraph pagination options. We’ll also take a look at styles – how to create your own styles and modify existing styles. Finally, we’ll perform some advanced editing and formatting using search and replace and linking.

Module 2 : Create Advanced References

This module takes a closer look at references. You’ll create an index, customize a table of contents, use captions to create a table of figures, and use forms and fields. You’ll also learn how to create a mail merge and labels.

Module 3 : Create Custom Word Elements

This module is all about standardizing and automating your work in Word. We’ll start with Quick Parts and other types of building blocks and content controls. We’ll also discuss how to record and run macros for automating repetitive tasks. Then we’ll look at creating custom sets for colors, fonts, themes and style sets to ensure that your documents always reflect your brand. We’ll close this module by addressing issues related to internationalization and accessibility.

Module 4 : Manage Document Options and Settings

This module starts with ways to customize the Word environment so that it works the way you want to work. We’ll start with templates, which can be a huge time saver for occasions when you need to make many documents with the same types of formatting. You’ll also learn how to manage other document elements for reuse in other documents. Then we’ll look at version control and managing document reviews and changes.
