Suse Linux 9.3 For Dummies- P15 190 Part III: Doing Stuff with SUSE You may be familiar with paragraph and character styles in Microsoft Word, but Writer relies more on styles than Microsoft Word. Writer supports five types of styles: Paragraph style: Controls the look of a paragraph, such as the font, paragraph spacing, borders, bullets, numbering, and the style of the fol- lowing paragraph. Character style: Controls the font style of selected text in a paragraph. Frame style: Controls the size and position of the frame and the text- wrapping options. Page style: Controls the page layout, including the margins, number of columns, headers, and footers. Numbering style: Controls the number or bullet character and spacing that are used for numbered or bulleted lists. You can conveniently access and use all the document’s styles in a floating window called the Stylist (Figure 12-4). Writer displays the Stylist by default, but you can show and hide it by pressing F11 (or choosing Format➪Stylist). Figure 12-4: Press F11 to toggle Stylist on and off. The Stylist makes it very easy to organize and use the styles. The five icons along the top part of the Stylist refer to the five types of styles — paragraph, character, frame, page, and numbering — from left to the right. You can click an icon to see all styles of that type. To apply a style, position the cursor where you want to apply the style and double-click the style from the Stylist. For character styles, select the text and then double-click the character style.Please purchase PDF Split-Merge on www.verypdf.com to remove this watermark. Chapter 12: Preparing Documents and Spreadsheets in SUSE Linux 191 Writer also supports templates, just as Microsoft Word does. A template is a special document with a collection of styles for the kinds of layouts that the document needs. You can think of a template as a model for a specific type of document. For example, you might have templates for documents such as memos, letters, fax cover sheets, envelopes, and many more. Writer does not come with any templates, but you can create or download templates from Web sites. A Writer template for writing manuscripts using the Modern Language Association (MLA) style (see owl.english.purdue. edu/handouts/research/r_mla.html for more information on the MLA style), for example, is available from www.cc.mie-u.ac.jp/~lq20106/ eg5000/templates/dl/MLA-Template.stw. You have to install the tem- plate file — MLA-Template.stw — before you can create documents using that template. Note that the .stw extension is used for OpenOffice.org tem- plate files. To install a template file to use in Writer, follow these steps: 1. Choose File➪Template➪Organize. The Template Management dialog box (shown in Figure 12-5) appears with the My Templates folder of templates on the left side and the cur- rent list of documents on the right. Figure 12-5: Import the template file into the My Templates template folder. 2. Right-click the Default folder icon and select Import Template from the pop-up menu, as shown in Figure 12-5. The Open dialog box appears. 3. Navigate to the directory where you saved the template file, select the template file, and click Open. The ...
