INFS 110 IN-CLASS Lab assignmentWord Processing 1

Scenario: Your friend’s English professor has assigned her students a research paper on Web publishing that must include a title page, table of contents, and a bibliography. The paper must follow specific formatting and style requirements as listed below. Although your friend has not taken the Computer Tools course, you fortunately have and know how to do everything the professor is requiring in Word. Therefore, you volunteer to type and format your friend’s research paper as follows: (I highly recommend following these exact steps)

Create a folder calledWebPubin you My Documents Folder
Download WebPublishingInsertfrom and save in WebPub
Start a new Word document and save it as WebPublishing
If necessary, switch to Print Layout View or Normal View
Set the font to 12-point Times New Roman
Set the margins to 1 inch for top, bottom, left, and right
Insert Page numbering at bottom center, lowercase Roman numerals (i, ii, iii, etc), Don’t show on the 1st page (title page)
Click on the Show/Hide button (backward-looking P button on formatting toolbar)

Set up the initial part of the Table Of Contents
While still centered, enter: Table Of Contents
Strike the Enter key
Left-align the cursor
Strike the Enter key twice more
Insert a Next Page Break (it MUST be a NEXT PAGE break because on the following page we want to change the page numbering and this seems to be the only way it works) to end the Table Of Contents section and begin the next section
Create the Main Body of the paper
At the top of the page where the text of the paper begins, reset the page numbering to start at 1, Arabic (1,2,3…), and don’t show on this page.
Set line spacing to double
Type and center the heading Introduction
Strike the enter key
Set alignment to left align
Set the First Line Indent to .5 inches
Type the 1st paragraph
Strike the enter key
Insert the file WebPublishingInsert (at the start of the 2nd paragraph
Set each inserted paragraph’s First Line Indent to .5 inches (you can do this quickly by first highlighting all the newly inserted paragraphs and then moving the First Line Indent Marker to .5 inches)
Switch the last 2 inserted paragraphs with each other
Add the following Headings before each paragraph:
Paragraph 2: Web Publishing Hardware And Software
Paragraph 3: HTML Code
Paragraph 4: Web Tools
After the word “sounds” at the end of the 2nd sentence in the 2nd paragraph, enter the following footnote:
Many current software packages include a clip gallery. Clip galleries also are available on the Web or may be purchased on CD-ROM or DVD-ROM (Zack 9-24).
Set the footnote font size to 12
Set the First Line Indent to .5 inches for this footnote
At the end of the 2nd paragraph, enter the following footnote:
Peter D. Thrall and Amy P. Winters. Computer Concepts for the New Millenium. (Boston: International Press, 2001), 46-68.
Set the footnote font size to 12
Set the First Line Indent to .5 inches for this footnote
Insert a hard Page Break on the line after the last paragraph to end the Main section and begin the next section
Create the Bibliography
Center and enter the heading Bibliography
Strike the Enter key and left-align
Set the line spacing to single
Set the First Line Indent to 0 inches on the ruler
Strike the Enter key again
Enter the following bibliographic entries in this order:
Thrall, Peter D., and Amy P. Winters. Computer Concepts for the New Millenium. Boston: International Press, 2001.
Zack, Joseph R. “An Introduction to Clip Galleries and Digital Files.” Computers For Today, Tomorrow, and Beyond. Sep. 2001:9-24.
Shelly Cashman Series ® Microsoft Word 2000 Project 2. Course Technology. 1 Oct. 2001.
Sort the bibliographic entries in ascending order
Format each entry as a hanging indent
Complete the Table of Contents
First, make sure the HEADING 1 Style is formatted as follows; it is best to first highlight the text Table Of Contents so that when you apply Heading 1 Style it will be applied to this text:
Font Size 14, Bold, Centered, Spacing Before = 0 pt, Spacing After = 3pt.
Starting with the heading Table Of Contents all the way to Bibliography, select every heading and apply the HEADING 1 Style to each heading. This is necessary to create the Table of Contents automatically.
Place the cursor 2 lines below the heading Table Of Contents but still on the same page
Create the Table Of Contents using INSERT > INDEX AND TABLES, etc
Check the generated table of contents to see if Word added any additional “headings” such as AndrewsUniversity from the title page. If so, simply move 2 lines above AndrewsUniversity (in this example), strike the Enter key and retype AndrewsUniversity. Then highlight and delete the line with the original AndrewsUniversity and the blank line below it. Since you’ve made this change, you will need to re-generate the Table Of Contents (TOC). To do this, highlight the existing table of contents headings and respective page numbers and create the TOC again just the like the 1st time; This is how to update a TOC.
If necessary, change the Table of Contents font size to 12 point (You can click on each item in the Table Of Contents and it will take you to that heading).
