Using Microsoft Word, a user can insert a video in a document, edit a PDF file, choose a template, and do a lot more. Most functions remain the same. For instance, the basic steps in creating and sharing documents are the same, but the power of editing tools has been enhanced to create professional-quality documents.
How to add Templates to Word
To give a more professional touch to your documents, you can add templates to them.
Templates can help you create engaging and beautiful documents. In Word, you’re offered a choice of great new templates.
To use a template:
- Open Word, automatically you will notice the list of templates.
- To see the list any other time, click File > New.
- You can check out more templates when you see the ‘Search online templates’ option. Word also provides suggestions for searching with the keywords below. The keywords help you quickly access popular templates.
- All the templates are provided in the thumbnail preview. You need to click the thumbnail to get a large preview. To see the templates related to the selected template, click the arrows on either side of the preview window.
- After you have found the template of your choice, double-click the thumbnail or choose ‘Create’ option to start a new document based on the template.
- If, you are not bothered at all to use a template, simply click the ‘Blank document’.
