Chapter 4: Managing Professional Documents
Word 2021 includes an array of features that aid in creating attractive and professional documents. In the previous edition of this book, we concentrated on creating professional documents and looked at ways to restrict and control access. In this new edition chapter, we will revisit some of these features with updates applicable to the Office 2021 interface and learn about some new features.
This chapter will teach you how to construct a form using the content controls and generate an online form within the Word desktop and online versions to collect information from others. We will also recap headers and footers in a document, revisit tracking and the compare/combine tools, and learn how to automate processes when using Word 2021.
We will cover the following topics in this chapter:
- Modifying page layouts
- Constructing online forms
- Recording document automation
- Tracking, comparing, and combining documents
