Import styles in word
Then any browser that doesn't support the simply won't read the styles, and a plain, unstyled document gets sent to the browser instead. This is very effective as a workaround when you must support Netscape 4 versions.Īnother workaround using the directive is to simply place all styles into the imported sheet. Because Netscape 4.x has limited support for CSS and you have to take care to send styles to it, separating out those styles that you don't want it to misinterpret and those styles you know it can support into linked and imported allows Netscape users to see some, but not all, styles. A number of browsers, particularly Netscape 4 versions, do not support the directive, yet they do support the link element.
You can use this technique for as many documents as you want, but typically this technique is used primarily in workarounds. So now the style is actually embedded in this file. Imagine the style element being filled with all the style rules within the import.css filethat's exactly what happens. The style sheet will be imported directly into the document. This is because importing isn't done with an element such as link instead, the CSS directive is used (see Example 7-4). They will have Heading 3.Importing into a document actually involves two types of style sheets: the separate style sheet that's to be imported (I'll call that import.css) and an embedded style sheet in the document. So Mars is Heading 2.Īnd the Phobos and Deimos, which are the moons of Mars. I can just go through my document and choose the heading. Should this be 14 point font? Should it be a different color? I don’t have to worry about that. Now The Planets, that’s going to be a different heading, so I can do Heading 2 and I don’t have to worry about well it’s 16 point font for Heading 1, what should. So I can go through my document this way. So let me click Asteroids and hit Heading 1 again. Kind of just what I did there with three steps, I can do with styles.
The Planets here, I’m going to hit Heading 1 and it has just given me some spacing. I am going to go up here to the Quick Styles, which is up here in the ribbon. I can do all those steps: change font, change spacing, change color with headings. Now if I have to do this for each of my headings, I know about Format Painter, so I can take this format, go over up here to Format Painter in the ribbon, click on that and now everything I touch will be painted like that.īut if I am doing that for a lot of headings, I have to go through my entire document. If you go up to the paragraph in the ribbon here in this little triangle on the bottom right-hand corner, that will open your Paragraph settings.Īnd after I am going to put a little six point. So let’s get away from the carriage return and maybe you know about, ooh, spacing. Maybe?Ĭarriage returns are bad, especially if you’re continuing typing because now you’re in that font. So let’s kind of I don’t know about that. What should I do for a heading? Well, let’s make it a color. Here is my author thing and I am going to try to center that, and I’ll make a little smaller, I guess. I might take my title here and okay I want to center that. Here’s what I would normally do if I didn’t know about styles.
So, here we have an unformatted document about the Solar system. As soon as they click this thing, and they look at fonts they’re gone for five minutes, right?īut what I am going to show you is the advantages of doing that. It’s a little tough if you come from the old typewriter age, or if you are a kid, I know, because I have a couple of teenagers. Work on formatting your document afterwards. I think it is attributed to Stephen King who says, “Don’t get it right (air quotes right), get it written.”
