Templates

Templates are useful if you use the same type of document with particular formatting repeatedly. There are several tips on the web, but in short, create a template as a blank, new template, as opposed to creating a new blank document and saving it as a template (or worse, saving an existing document as a template). The article below discusses templates but also fonts, which is interesting. In brief, for web-reading, using non-justified Arial.

Pasting into lists = keep indents consistent

, the light

Pasting any text, even without formatting, makes the list take on the unedited paragraph style. It's a bug, but it's not going to be fixed. The solution is to create a new style. However, there are two list types, and only the multi-level will work properly.

When indents change unexpectedly in a numbered or bulleted list, you have to verify that they have been set up properly. Click in the first level 1 item of the list and then click Home tab | Multilevel List | Define New Multilevel List (although the "new" part is misleading). Adjust the settings in the "Position" area as desired. You may have to click the More button to see all options.
