Adding text to your page:
- Using text in FrontPage seems much like using text in any word processor.
However, there are a few differences that can confuse beginners and
need to be kept in mind:
- You cannot create indented paragraphs by using the tab key.
- The program allows you to select from all the fonts you have on your
computer, however, they may not display correctly on other computers
without the font installed. A pretty safe font to use is Arial, as most
people in the world have it installed and studies have shown it to be
the best font for readability on the web.
- These are the options that you can find on your text editors menu
(Note: there may be a few more options if you have FrontPage 2002 installed.):
- Font Options - Pull down menu with many
different options. The options that will be used most often from this
menu is the different heading sizes. These will change the size of
your font. Heading 1 is the largest, Heading 6 is the smallest, but
these are only to be used for "headers" (The standard used
at SUU is a Heading 2).
- Font select menu - remember that all computers
may not have the same fonts installed, so the page will not look the
same on other computers if you use different fonts. Arial is a pretty
standard font.
- Change Font Size - This is the box that
you will use to change font size on your page wherever the text isn't
a heading (Size 2 is the standard at SUU for main body text).
- Font Attributes - Bold, Italic and Underline
- Font Alignment - Left Justified, Center
or Right Justified (FrontPage 2002 adds a full justification to this
area)
- Lists and Indent - Numbered List, Bulleted
List, decrease indent, increase indent.
- Colors - First button is to highlight
text and the arrow next to it is to change the highlight color. Second
button is to change the font color.
