Quick+Styles

=Quick Styles = = = Although themes change the overall colors, fonts, and effects that are used, Quick Styles (Quick Styles: Collections of formatting options that make formatting your documents and objects easier.) , (or Styles), change how the different colors, fonts, and effects are combined and which color, font, and effect is dominant. When you rest the pointer on a Quick Style thumbnail, you can see how the Quick Style affects your table, SmartArt graphic, or shape. The design description ( theme colors (theme colors: A set of colors that is used in a file. Theme colors, theme fonts, and theme effects compose a theme.), theme fonts  (theme fonts: A set of major and minor fonts that is applied to a file. Theme fonts, theme colors, and theme effects compose a theme.) ,  and  theme effects  (theme effects: A set of visual attributes that is applied to elements in a file. Theme effects, theme colors, and theme fonts compose a theme.) ) of themes provides galleries of Quick Styles that always match the theme of your document. Themes and Quick Styles are both created by visual designers so that all of your documents look professionally created. When you choose from the various Quick Style galleries, your content will be well-matched to your overall document theme.

Word Quick Styles
In Office Word 2007, you can choose a set of paragraph and character styles, or pre-designed Quick Style sets (such as **Distinctive **) that are designed to work together to create an attractive and professional-looking document. For example, one set of Office Word 2007 Quick Styles may include styles for several heading levels, body text, a quotation, and a title. All of the style colors and formats in a single style set are designed to be used together to create an attractive and compelling document. All that you must do is [|choose the Quick Style set] that is appropriate for the document that you are creating and then [|apply the styles] from the convenient Quick Styles gallery when you create your document.

In most cases, you will not change styles in a Quick Style set because the styles are designed to complement one another, and it is easier to use a different Quick Style set. Under certain circumstances, however, you might want to [|change the attributes of a style] i n a Quick Style set or [|add a brand new style] . When you [|save a Quick Style set as your default for new documents] , the theme that is currently applied to the document is also made the default theme. <span style="font-size: 9pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-decoration: none;">[|Applying a different theme] <span style="font-size: 9pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> to a document that was created with a Quick Style set makes it easy to create a professional and unique-looking document. Quick styles are not automatically theme-aware. The built-in Quick Style sets are, but if you save a Quick Style that is not theme-aware, the Quick Style set will have no relationship to the theme.


 * EXAMPLE: **

Quick Styles are sets of styles created to work together. Although a Quick Style set likely contains all of the styles that you need to build a document, you may want to add a brand new style. You can also create additional styles, such as a new table or list style. = = = = = Microsoft Office 2007 Help = Microsoft Office website: []
