This newsletter is created primarily
by using text columns, so that text
automatically wraps from one
column to the next. Find the
Columns feature on the Page
Layout tab, in the Page Setup
group. Get tips for setting up and
using text columns later in this
template
Adding your own content
The placeholder text for several

articles in this template provides tips
on how to customize this newsletter
for your needs.
To replace any placeholder text with
your own, just select it and start
typing. Note that if the placeholder
text you replace is long, such as for
this article, it might look like the
page layout is skewed when you do
this but it is not. The content that
sits lower on the page only moves
up because less content is present
when you begin to replace your own
text. As you type to add your text,
content will move back into position
automatically.
Placeholders that remain when

you add text
The title and subtitle placeholders
dont disappear when you add your
own text. They will look like regular
text when printed but you can see
the blue outline and title of the
placeholder when you click in it.
IN THIS ISSUE
The

reason these placeholders remain is

that they are linked to other
placeholders that use the same text.
So, when you replace the title or
subtitle placeholder text with your
own, it automatically populates the
corresponding placeholders in the
headers and on the back page
mailer.
Replacing pictures
To replace a picture in this template

with your own, select it and then, on
the Picture Tools Format tab, in
the Adjust group, click Change
Picture. (Or right-click a photo to
access the Change Picture
command.)
The pictures that you see in
sidebars, such as In This Issue at
right, are formatted as In Line With
Text so that they sit right in a
paragraph mark and can be
formatted as easily as text. The
custom paragraph style named
Sidebar photo applies indent
formatting that helps align the
photos perfectly with the other
sidebar content.
Pictures that wrap around some text

in articles throughout the newsletter
use text settings and positioning.
Get help for working with text wrap
around pictures later in this
template.

Using Styles
by
Name Style
The body text throughout the

articles in this template uses the
Normal paragraph style. Following
are some other styles applied
throughout the template:
Large article titles, such as on

the first page, use Heading 1
style.
Orange headings in the sidebars
and within articles use Sidebar
Heading style.
Orange section titles in articles
use the Heading 2 style.
Small article titles use Heading
3 style.
This style is List Bullet 2.
This style is List Continue.
Contact Info is the name of the

gray text style inside the small
contact tables.
Access all styles used in this
template on the Home tab, in the
Styles group.
A column break is inserted before and after

each column that acts as a sidebar. To insert a
column break, press Ctrl+Shift+Enter. Or, on
the Page Layout tab, in the Page Setup
group, click Breaks, and then click Column.
Text in sidebars uses the

Sidebar Text style.
White headings on orange text
in tables uses the Heading 4
style.
The heading inside contact
information tables uses
Heading 5 style.
Using styles helps save you time and

keep your document consistent. To
modify a style, on the Home tab, in
the Styles group, right-click the
name of the style you want to edit
and then click Modify. All content
where the style is applied will
update automatically.
Another way to modify a style is to
simply customize an instance of the
style where its applied in the
document. Then, on the Home tab,
in the Styles group, right-click the
style name and then click Update
[style] to Match Selection.
HEADING 4 STYLE
Use the small tables provided in some of the articles to call out quick reference information related to the article, such as contact
information or event dates.
HEADING 5
Contact Info
This picture caption uses the
Caption 2 paragraph style and
is inside a text box so that you
can move it easily as needed
to accompany a photo.
To setup a document for multiple

column text, on the Page Layout
tab, in the Page Setup group, click
Columns and then click the number
of columns you need. You can also
click More Columns to specify
column widths, the space between
columns, or to automatically add a
vertical line between columns.
To change the number of columns
for just part of the document (or if
you want text to wrap to just the top
part of the page and a new article to
start below as shown on this page),
insert a section break before the
position where you want to start the
new column layout. To do this, on
the Page Layout tab, in the Page
Setup group, click Breaks and then
click the type of section break you
need.
Select a section break
When changing many types of page

layout formatting for just part of the
documentsuch as paper size,
margins, or orientation, the best
section break type to use is a Next
Page section break because it
automatically starts the new section
on a new page. However, when
Working with Columns

changing the number of columns as

you might in this newsletter, you
may prefer to select a Continuous
break. The continuous section break
(used a few times throughout this
template) starts a new section
immediately after the preceding
one. So, for example, you can have a
three-column article followed by a
four-column article, on the same
page.

using tables, as shown at left.
Setting up multipage articles.

thermometer charts
Sidebar Setup
The sidebars in this template use simple,
single-row tables for the gray-shaded
headings and thermometer charts shown
below for easy alignment.
When you work in Word 2010 (or

PowerPoint 2010), you have the full
power of Excel 2010 charts

Word from the Insert tab, in the
Illustrations group. Charts are easy
to create and use and automatically
coordinate with your active
document theme.
Add Sidebar Content

Adding content into a column to create a
sidebar is no different from adding text. As
noted earlier in this template, apply the styles
provided for headings, sidebar text, and even
pictures to align them quickly and easily.

the Table Tools Layout tab, in
the Table group, click

On the Columns tab of the
Table Properties dialog box,
change the Measure In setting
to Percentage. You can then
set the percentage to up to one
decimal point in accuracy.

To remove the second placeholder
control that starts immediately
following this one, just select it and
then press any key. You can then
continue typing from this page and
your text will automatically flow onto
the next.
Wrap text around images
The photos in this article that are

angled with white borders are
floating images. That is, they are
setup for text to wrap around them
which is why they can span multiple
columns in a three-column section.
Additionally, as mentioned earlier,
the photo of the young woman in the
body of this article is set to
wrap text so that text will
flow around the image as
you add your own text.
To select text
wrap settings,
start by selecting
the image and then
do the following:
1
On the
Picture
Tools
Format tab,
in the Arrange
group, click Wrap
Text and then select either

options.

To set a specific position or

control behavior (such as
whether or not the image moves
with text), on the Picture Tools
Format tab, in the Arrange
group, click Position and then
click More Layout Options.
On the Text Wrapping tab of
the Layout dialog box, you can
set a specific distance from the
image for text to wrap and
control whether text can wrap on
both sides, one side only, or just
above and below the image.
On the Position tab of that
dialog box, you can set a specific

position for the image on the
page and select or clear the
option to allow the picture to
move with text.
Adding article titles, bylines,

and dividers
The article titles and bylines for this

newsletter are created in text boxes.
This is because text can wrap
around a text box just like it can
around a picture. Similarly, the
orange divider bars that you see on
pages containing more than one
article are shapes set to wrap text.
So, these text boxes and shapes can
easily span multiple columns without
having to insert a section break or
change the number of columns for
just that portion of the page.
The Remove Background feature
automatically displays what it
believes to be the central subject of
the image. However, its easy to

not what you need.
Office 2010 introduced several new

and improved picture formatting
tools in Word, PowerPoint, and Excel.
Among those is the Remove
Background tool that you can use to
remove backgrounds from your own
images, similar to the sample image
on the preceding page.
On the Background Removal tab,

click Mark Areas to Keep or Mark
Areas to Remove and then drag
your mouse pointer in a line across
the portion of the image you want to
add or remove. When you are
finished making adjustments, click
Keep Changes.
To do this in Word, first insert your

image into the document (on the
Insert tab, click Picture), and then
select it. Then, on the Picture Tools
Format tab, in the Adjust group,
click Remove Background.

When you select a text box or a

shape, on the Drawing Tools
Format tab, in the Arrange group,
you have the same settings for text
wrapping and positioning that are
described above for wrapping text
around pictures.
Note that, because text is set to
wrap around the orange divider
bars, your article might appear to
slip below or above a bar, depending
upon length. To adjust the position of
a divider bar shape to accommodate
the length of your articles, just
select the shape and then use the
up and down arrow keys on your
keyboard to nudge it to the proper
position.
