Microsoft Word Classes PDF Manual

To open a new document, click on the File button, and then on New… then choose Blank Document. Microsoft Word has many “pre-formatted templates” to choose from, whether you would like to print envelopes, labels, posters or résumés etc. there are many designs to choose from. In this class we will be working with a blank document.

The Menu bar at the top of the screen is where you will find all the tools you will need to manage your document. Do not be afraid to explore on your own time, as we will not have time to go over all of the functions available! The words at the top (File, Edit, View, Insert, Format, Tools, Table, Window, Help) all work as drop-down windows. The icons under these words are simply shortcuts to the functions you will find in the drop-down windows. *If you make a mistake typing, especially if you accidentally erase a large portion of text or change the format of your work, don’t forget that you can use the “undo” function which will undo your last command. You will find this by going to Edit and then Undo, or by using the
arrow icon on the Shortcuts Menu Bar.

To save a file for the first time, click on the File button at the top left hand corner of the screen. In the drop-down menu, select Save As and click. In the Save As window, there is a Save in textbox. Use the drop-down arrow on the right end of this textbox to reveal locations where you can save your file. Select the location by clicking on it.
