The Styles Drawer
As you create a document, you may want to use a certain text style for every chapter
title, section heading, bulleted list, and body text paragraph. Each template comes
with a library of preset styles that you can choose from. The Styles drawer lists and
provides a preview of all the text styles in the template you are using, so you can
create, customize, and manage them in a snap.
To open the Styles drawer:
m Choose View > Show Styles Drawer (or click Style in the toolbar and choose Show
Styles Drawer).
Rulers help you set
margins and tabs where
you want them.
Alignment guides help
you precisely position
objects on the page. (Here
the alignment guides are
blue.)
Blue icons on the top ruler
indicate text indents and
tab settings. Drag them to
reset the position of text.
Gray rectangles below
the rulers indicate
column margins. Drag
them to change the
column gutter widths.
