How to add a page or title page to a Word. Fit text on page
How to add a page to the Word. For some, this is not a problem, but for some it is a whole disaster. Even if you have been familiar with the Word text editor for a long time, this does not mean that you know everything about it. I can't say that about myself either. You must always learn, and do not be ashamed of it. Stupid is not the one who learns, but the one who believes that he knows everything! I am not writing my articles to teach you. I never had such intentions. I'm just sharing my experience in a friendly way. And I really want you to write in the comments about your secrets of working with text editors or various developments in the field of computer programs. This is the only way to know the truth.
Today we will talk about how to quickly and painlessly add a new blank page to a document, and how to create title page or a cover in Word 2010. Since the text editor Word 2010 and Word 2007 are similar, I will describe the sequence of actions in only one of them, ie Word 2010.
In order to add a page to the Word, you need to do the following:
- Place the cursor where you want to insert a new page;
- Select Team Empty page in the tab Insert in Group Pages ;
A new page will appear above the cursor you placed on the previous page.
How to insert a cover page or cover intoWord
Word 2010 has pre-built cover and cover templates. You just have to select, insert it, and replace the finished sample text with your own.
- You can set the cursor anywhere, the title page will still be at the beginning of the document.
- Select Team Front page in the tab Insert in Group Pages .
3. Select the cover you like from the drop-down box cover page, and click on it with the left mouse button.

1. Page parameters. Orientation, dimensions and other sheet parameters
At the beginning of working with a document, you need to set the page parameters (this can be done at any time when working with the document). Usually the initial page parameters are the most appropriate and nothing needs to be changed. However, sometimes you may want your document sheets not to be vertical (like in a book), but horizontal (like in an album). Or you might want to change the margins - the distance from the edge of the page to the text.
All this can be set on the tab Page layout tool tape. This tab contains tools responsible for different actions for page layout and text layout.
The most used tools are in the group Page settings.
All changes made will apply not only to the current page, but also to all pages of the document.
Figure: 1. Tab Page Layout
To select / change the orientation of the document pages (from portrait to landscape or vice versa), click on the button Orientation and in the drop-down list select the desired type of orientation. The default orientation is portrait when creating a document.

Similarly, by clicking on the button Fields, you can select the desired margins (empty areas at the edges of the document). You will be offered several options to choose from, and if none of them suits you, click Custom fields and a dialog box will appear in front of you Page settings(Fig. 3), in which you can set the required field sizes.
Figure: 3. Sizes of fields
The page size is selected using the button The size(Fig. 4), and the number of columns in which the text should be displayed - using the Columns button. As in the case of fields, if you need to manually adjust the number and width of columns, then clicking the button Loudspeakers select value Other speakers and in the dialog box that appears, make the required settings (Fig. 5).

Microsoft Word 2007 features
As you probably already know, Word is the most popular and widespread text editor.
A text editor is a program that is designed to work with text documents on a computer: their creation, editing, design, etc. In today's view, a text editor has outgrown just a tool for easy typing and editing of text.
The functionality of modern text editors is very expanded and strives to provide convenient work with text information in all its manifestations.
History of Microsoft Word
The first version of the text editor Word appeared back in 1983 and was designed to work in the MS DOS operating system. The editor was based on the Bravo word processor, developed in the laboratory of the Xerox PARC research center.
The first version of Word can hardly be called a text editor in the modern sense. The program did not have a graphical interface (buttons, menus, etc.), but it could display the markup of documents, which compares favorably with other programs of that time for working with text.
The first text editor with a graphical interface was Word 3.01, which, by the way, worked for Macintosh computers (from Apple) and was released in 1985. The first version for Windows appeared in 1989 along with the most operating system... From this period word numbering it was decided to start with 1 and the further historical path looked like this:
1989 - Microsoft Word 1 for Windows released.
1991 - Microsoft Word 2 for Windows released. In the same year, a set appeared microsoft programs Office and its first version came out
1993 - Microsoft Word 6 for Windows released. From this period, Microsoft decided to take into account the three versions that existed before the Windows era and thus jumped from version 2 to version 6 at once.
1995 - With the release of Windows 95, Microsoft Word 7 for Windows was released, which became known as Word 95
1997 - Microsoft Word 97 (aka Word 8) was released, focused on working with Windows 98.
1999 - Microsoft Word 2000 (aka Word 9) was released, developed for the Windows 2000 platform.
2001 - Microsoft Word XP (aka Word 2002, aka Word 10) was released, focused on working with Windows XP.
2003 - Microsoft Word 2003 (aka Word 11) was released again for Windows XP.
2007 - Microsoft Word 2007 (aka Word 12) was released for Windows XP and Windows Vista.
Cooking text for print in Microsoft Office 2007, one may encounter a situation where a couple of lines do not fit on the page and move on to the next one. Print document with extra page, on which there will be only a few lines not rational from the point of view of saving paper, and simply the convenience of perceiving the text as a whole.
To solve this problem, open the required textwhich follows fitand click on the logo button. Then click the "Print" and "Preview" button.
In the window that opens, click the "Shrink to page" item.
For convenience, if you often encounter such a situation, you can carry over this function to the quick access panel.
And everything is good, understandable and works, but all this was written for someone else. The point is that in Microsoft Office 2010 there is no such function. Rather, she disabled, and to activate, you must accordingly customize ribbon menu... Click "File" and choose options, there click Customize Ribbon.
In the window that opens, expand the menu under "Select commands" and select "All commands".
Scroll down to Shrink to Page, select it. In the column on the right, mark the tab on which this menu item should be located and at the bottom click "Create group" and then click the "Add" button and OK.
