==From Wiki to Word Processor== # Go to the [[Mano a Mano:Book]] page, and save the complete page (with images) on your computer. # Open your saved copy of the page with a plain text editor (like notepad.) # Replace everything up to <code><nowiki><!-- begin content --></nowiki></code> with <code><nowiki><html><body></nowiki></code> # Replace everything starting from <code><nowiki><div class="printfooter"></nowiki></code> with <code><nowiki></body></html></nowiki></code> # If you will be using Microsoft Word, use the text editor's "Replace" feature to change every <code><nowiki><dt></nowiki></code> to <code><nowiki><dt><b></nowiki></code> and every <code><nowiki></dt></nowiki></code> to <code><nowiki></b></dt></nowiki></code> # Save the changes and close the text editor # Open the modified copy of the page with your favorite word processor # If you are using OpenOffice.org, export the document as an OpenDocument text file (.odt). # If you are using Microsoft Word, save the document as a Word document (.doc). ==Give it some Style== To change a style in OpenOffice.org: # Press F11 to bring up the Styles palette # Click on the paragraph symbol to select a paragraph style or the 'A' to select a character style. # Right-click the style and select the Modify option To change a style in Microsoft Word: # Open the Format menu and click Style... to bring up the Style dialog box # Select the style and click on the Modify... button to bring up the Modify Style dialog box # Use the Format button at the bottom of this dialog to change the style. ;image borders: :If you use OpenOffice.org, there is a blue border around linked images. There is no style for this, so we have to change each image separately. Right-click on the picture, select Picture..., click on the Borders tab, change the Style to -None- and click OK. ;cross-references :Make the "Internet Link" (OpenOffice.org) or "Hyperlink" (Microsoft Word) style ''italic'', change the Underlining to (Without) or (none) and change the Font color to Automatic. ;definition terms (like this) :In OpenOffice.org, make the "List Heading" style '''bold''' so definition terms are bold. Microsoft Word does not seem to have a style for definition terms (which is why we made them all bold using "Replace" in the text editor.) ;tables :In OpenOffice.org, change the spacing below paragraphs to 0 for the "Table Contents" style. Some cells should be centered and others should be left-aligned, so the rest of the table formatting needs to be done one-table-at-a-time. Sometimes you will need to top-align data in the bottom row of a table because it gets stretched by text to the left. ;font size :Use the "Default" (OpenOffice.org) or "Normal" (Microsoft Word) style to resize most of the text. The Header styles may need resizing too. ==Page Setup== *In OpenOffice.org, open the Format menu and select Page... *In Microsoft Word, open the File menu and select Page Setup... ==Pagination== * Open the View menu and select Print layout. * Press Ctrl+Enter wherever you want to start a new page. ==Table of Contents== # Click the place where you want to insert the Table of Contents to move the cursor there. # Open the Insert menu and click on Indexes and Tables... (In OpenOffice.org you actually open a submenu of the Insert menu - which is also named Indexes and Tables - and click on Indexes and Tables... in there.) # Click on the "Index/Table" (OpenOffice.org) or "Table of Contents" (Microsoft Word) tab. # Change the "Evaluate up to level" (OpenOffice.org) or "Show levels" (Microsoft Word) option to 2 and then click OK. ==Cover== * [[Mano a Mano:Front Cover|Front Cover]] * [[Mano a Mano:Back Cover|Back Cover]]
