​Practical - Document production

​Every day you are likely to come into contact with documents, posters, letters, leaflets, books and other printed materials that were prepared using software that enables users to develop and edit text-based documents.

In this session, you will be looking at how to create and open documents using information from different sources.

The examples here are from Microsoft Word, but you can use any word processing software to complete the tasks and activities.

​Learning

1. Page layout​

2. ​the orientation of the page (landscape or wide, portrait or tall)

3. the size of the paper

4. the layout of the page

5. the size of the margins.

Note​

The gutter that you can see in the

margins menu refers to part of

the page outside the margins. This

is important if the pages are to be

bound. The gutter leaves space for

staples or binding, and means that

the text on the page is printed with

enough space around it to make

reading easier. Most of the time,

the gutter is set to 0 cm. The gutter

position can be set to: Top (top of the

page) or, more usually, to: Left.
