  • This tutorial will demonstrate how to create custom styles in Microsoft word. Styles are a quick and easy way to format a document and Word includes several default styles. But did you know that you can create your own to suit your design aesthetic? Whether you are creating your own documents or trying to easily apply your company style rules, customized styles will help you get it done.

    Confession time, I was using Word for over 10 years before I found this and used to add fonts types, size, and color each time I started a doucment. This is way easier :)

    Hello Heather - Thank you for this video. I was pulling out my hair trying to understand and set styles to my up and coming Indie book. I viewed other videos and just 'couldn't get it'. You explained it so well. It was easy to comprehend, and you have the gift of reaching and teaching others. Whew! Now I can rest easy. Thank you again!

    This was a great tutorial. I'd never tried the "Character" style before - this will be extremely useful for me when teaching online! Is there any chance you could do a little tutorial on how the "Table" one would work? I assume it would convert the selected text into a table? But how would we tell it how many rows and columns we need? Thank you for this video.

      Hi, I will have to look at that idea and play with it a bit. Glad this video was helpful and that you offered a suggestion.

    hi, is it also possible to make a custom style for pictures?

    • @HeatherMajors

      Custom styles are tied to text. Since I don't know what you are trying to accomplish I will make suggestion based on how I see people use pictures. You can insert an image into a word document for things like headers, footers, or even a background of the document. Most people I work with are using it as the header so that every document has consistent branding. Then I would suggest saving the formatted document as a template. When you got to file > save as switch the doc type from word document to word template. This way you can always start from a blank template that has your image in it.

      @@HeatherMajors Hi thanks for your response. I need to make a manual with many same pages about 60 or so. My idea was to make 1 header per page, below it 4 lines of text and below it an image. Everything on 1 page should be fixed. This page I then copy 60 times. I then want to drag in the images and they should automatically adjust to the frame. Problem is as soon as I hit enter or type somewhere everything shifts.

    At 0:38 you say "click the dropdown." Where is the dropdown? What do I right-click?

    • @HeatherMajors

      Hi, so yeah, I did a bad job of describing that. In the styles section, where you see names like Heading, Title, Normal, etc., there is a tiny drop-down arrow at the bottom right side of that box. This will make the box larger so you can see more than the top few options.
      For the second question, I am showing an alternative way to find styles. If you select some words, any words, you can right-click them, and a menu will pop up that allows you to quickly access the styles options.
