You can do this the same way you turned Snap To Grid off, except that instead of unchecking the Snap To Grid box, you can change the numbers in the Horizontal and Vertical spacing boxes you can use the arrows to the right of the numbers to change them, or you can highlight the numbers and type new numbers.
The drawing tools provide an easy way to line up objects. If you want to align two objects, click on the first one so that it is selected. Hold down the shift key and click on the second object. Now both object should be selected. In or earlier, Go to the Draw menu on the left of the Drawing Toolbar, usually at the bottom of the screen and choose Align or Distribute.
From the flyout menu, choose how you want to align the objects. In , go to the Format Ribbon and choose Align from the Arrange section of the ribbon. There are three options for vertical alignment putting the objects above and below each other and three options for horizontal alignment putting the objects side by side.
For vertical alignment, use Align Left to line up the left edges of the objects, Align Right to line up the right edges, and Align Center to line them up in the middle. For horizontal alignment, use Align Top to line up the top edges, Align Bottom to line up the bottom edges and Align Middle to line them up in the middle. You might decide to have each of your articles be a separate text object.
This gives you flexibility for placing your articles, but it means you must be careful about lining up the articles within the column. The first thing you must do is make sure that the articles are the same width. While you could try to eyeball this by dragging the sides of the text objects to resize them, you want them to be exactly the same width.
To adjust the size of a text box to an exact size, right click on the border of the text box control-click on a Macintosh and choose Format Text Box from the menu. Click on the Size tab and adjust the number listed under Width 3. Be sure that this number is the same for all text objects in that column. Since the objects are the same width, Align Left, Align Right, and Align Center are all the same and you can use any of them. Now you are ready to layout your articles. Go back to your articles document you can select it from the Window menu or the Taskbar.
Highlight your first article by dragging the mouse across it. Go to the Edit menu and select Copy in or earlier, or, in , go to the Home Ribbon and select Copy. Go back to the newsletter document using the Window menu or Taskbar again. Create a new text object click on your text tool and then click anywhere in the document and go to the Edit menu or Home Ribbon and select Paste. You will now have to resize your text object so your article fits.
You can do this just like you did for the name of your newsletter, but you might want to make all your articles exactly the same width see Lining Up Objects Within a Column above.
You should note that the text box that you have created is like a mini-word-processing document. You can do almost anything with that object that you can do with the word processor. When your cursor is blinking inside the text object, all the formatting commands and ruler changes that you make apply to your text object. To make changes to the formatting of your article, click inside the article you might have to do this once or twice until you see a box around the article.
You should notice that the ruler at the top of the page has margins set based on the article you have selected, and you should have a flashing cursor somewhere inside your article. This is a mini-word-processing document. You can adjust paragraph indentation, add text, change margins, change fonts and styles, etc. You will probably want to add a title to your article.
Click at the very beginning of your article and hit ENTER to make a blank line at the top of the article. Click in that blank line, and you should see a flashing cursor at the beginning of the blank line. Type the title of the article. Since this is a title, you might want it to be bold and centered. You do this like you would anything in a word processor center with your center tool, bold with your bold tool.
If you center your title while it is set to be indented, it will not be properly centered; be sure to move the First Line Indent back to 0 to get the title properly centered. To add visual appeal to your newsletter, you should add graphics.
In or earlier, go to the Insert menu and move the mouse down to Picture. From the flyout menu, you can choose: Clip Art to add pictures from Microsoft's clip art library; From File to choose a picture from some other source; AutoShapes to create some fancy shapes; WordArt to perform some special effects with words beyond simple fonts and styles ; or Chart to insert a chart or graph. Whatever you insert will be an object, so you can delete it, resize it, and move it around just as you would any other drawing object.
Be sure that you are not in the middle of an article when you insert graphics. That is, do not have a box around any text objects with the flashing cursor inside. If you are in the middle of an article, the picture will be part of the article, and it will be harder to move. You can also create your own graphics by using the draw tools. Anything more than a fancy line, however, will require some artistic ability.
When you insert many graphics, Word places them "in line with text. That is, it looks like a picture, but in many ways it acts like a big giant letter A. This is not what you want. You want to change the picture to "float over text" or be "in front of text. This might be easy or difficult depending on what is on top of the picture.
The easy way to select the picture is to click on it. If you have lots of other objects around it and on top of it, you might not be able to click on the picture every time you click, you might be clicking on one of the text boxes for your newsletter.
In or earlier, if this is the case, you can try to select it by holding down the shift key, and clicking the left arrow this selects the previous thing in the document. In , you can click on the edge of any other object such as one of your text boxes and hit the TAB key over and over until the picture is selected. If it works, you will see the handles around the picture. If it doesn't, be sure that you click somewhere in your document that is not on an object so nothing is selected and try again.
If it still doesn't work, try hitting your left arrow a couple of times and then your right arrow several times and try again. If you are unable to get the picture selected, you will have to move another object like a text box out of the way; select the picture; format it, and then move the object back where it belongs. In , once your picture is selected, go to the Format menu and choose Picture. Click on the Layout tab and click on the choice for "Float over text" or "In front of text.
You should see the square handles turn into circular handles. You should now be able to move your picture where you want by dragging from the middle of the picture, and you should be able to resize your picture by dragging one of the handles. If you want to have more than one page, you can do one of two things. You can create a second newsletter document newsletter2 for the second page, or you can create a second page within this document.
