Importing and exporting styles
You can export all or some of the styles on a stylesheet palette to a separate
file, and import them into other documents. This is useful if you want to
reuse your favorite styles in other documents, or establish formatting
standards for everyone in your organization to use and share.
To import or export styles, start by clicking on the Default button bar (or
choosing Show Stylesheet from the Window menu) to display the stylesheet palette.
Creating a slide presentation
You can set up and run a slide presentation from AppleWorks. You use the
AppleWorks application as the slide projector, the pages of an AppleWorks
document as the slides, and your computer monitor as the screen.
In an AppleWorks presentation you can:
1
set an automatic time advance for the slides
1
include QuickTime and AVI movies
1
show the same series of slides repeatedly
1
add a background using a master page
