Format Text, Paragraphs, and Sections
In this module, Word 2016 Essentials will focus on getting text, paragraphs and sections – the meat of the document – to look great. We’ll explain how to insert special characters. We’ll cover the different methods of editing text, and we’ll look at formatting both text and paragraphs.
