Creating a cover page is as simple as point, click, and edit.
Tip You can customize the cover page you select by adding your logo, adding a photo of
your facility, or choosing the color scheme and font style that matches your business brand.
Then save the cover as an item you will reuse with other reports to give your documents a
consistent look and feel.
Working with Building Blocks
Building Blocks are great new tools in Office Word 2007 that are based on the idea of reusable
content. If you have a logo, letterhead, mission statement, or disclaimer that you use again and
again on your professional documents, why not save those items as document parts you can
insert quickly into new documents you create? This saves you the time and trouble of recreating
the content and reduces the margin for error (because any time you draft something new
you open up the possibility of typos and grammatical errors).
The Building Blocks feature is available in the Text command set of the Insert tab. When you
click the Quick Parts arrow, a gallery displays any parts you created and saved and offers
options for adding fields, page numbers, or inserting other parts from the Building Blocks
Organizer (see Figure 4-3).
Note During the beta program for Office Word 2007, Building Blocks were originally
referred to as Quick Parts.
