1. Maintaining Documents and Working with Templates
Lesson 12

2. Objectives

3. Software Orientation
The Outline View tab contains buttons for working with long documents and arranging the document into smaller sections. The Outlining tab is shown below.
Use this figure as a reference throughout this lesson as well as the rest of this book.

4. Arranging Document Views
Creating master documents enables you to work efficiently with large reports such as your research paper.
Creating sections in a long document makes it more manageable and easy to edit.

5. Working with a Master and Subdocuments
The master document is the main document from a Word file and is organized into smaller sections.
Subdocuments are the sections within the master document that have been separated into smaller sections.
The subdocuments exist within the master document and as a separate file.
You can edit from your master document or work in the subdocument as a separate individual document. When you edit and save subdocuments independently, the master document automatically gets updated. When you need to review the master document, all editing changes will appear in the document.

6. Saving the Master Document
You must save the master document first before creating subdocuments.
In the following exercise, you will learn to save the master document.

7. Step-by-Step: Save the Master Document
OPEN the hosting document from lesson folder..
Click the File tab, then Save As. In the Save As dialog box, use the scroll bar to locate your USB flash drive.
Click the New folder button located under the address bar and Key MASTER_DOCUMENT, and press Enter. Then click the Open button to place the MASTER_DOCUMENT folder in the address bar, or double-click. You are creating a folder in which to save the master document file.

LEAVE the document open for the next exercise.
Creating and saving documents was covered in Lesson 1.

9. Creating Subdocuments
A subdocument is part of the master document and separated into small sections.
The first step is identifying the levels within the subdocuments. A heading style should be identified within the document first to determine the outline level.
Editing subdocuments automatically updates the master document.
The Outlining tab contains the Collapse and Expand subdocument buttons that correlate with the master document.
In the following exercise, you will be saving the document as a master document in a specific folder and creating subdocuments that are saved separately.

10. Step-by-Step: Create Subdocuments
USE the document open from the previous exercise.
Click the View tab in the Document Views group, click the Outline button. The Outlining tab is now available on the Ribbon.
In the Outline Tools group, click the drop-down arrow at Show Level and select Level 1 to make the document more manageable. This document has already been formatted with heading styles; when you change the levels, the document collapses and only Level 1 displays as shown below.

35. Software Orientation
You can work more efficiently by basing many of your new documents on templates that Word provides—many choices are available for working with templates, as shown below.

36. Working with Templates
A template is a master document with predefined page layout, fonts, margins, and styles that is used to create new documents that will share the same basic formatting.
Using templates keeps you from having to recreate documents such as interoffice memorandums, monthly newsletters that you share with employees, recordings of minutes from meetings, and more.
In Backstage, the New command allows you to work with templates that are already installed, search for a template online, open a blank template, or create your own template.

37. Working With Templates
You can choose from many different categories of templates, such as letters, memos, resumes, flyers, forms, and more.
Some templates are preinstalled with Word and there are more options available online.
Templates are reusable even if you saved the document with a different file name.
In the following exercise, you will locate an installed template.

38. Step-by-Step: Locate a Template Installed on Your Computer
If necessary, before you begin these steps, launch Word.
Click the File tab, then select New.
