1. Elaborate any four different types of styles which are provided in Writer.
Ans –
Writer provides six Style categories, which are as follows:
(a) Page – all documents in Writer are based on pages, hence for formatting them, Page Style is used.
It defines basic page layout like page size, its margin, placement of header and footer, footnote,
borders and background. A document can have one or many page styles. If a page style is not
specified, Writer uses its built-in Default page style.
(b) Paragraph – after deciding on a page format, next is the document content, which is organized in
paragraphs. A paragraph begins and ends by pressing Enter key. Paragraph formatting includes tab
stops, text alignment, line spacing and borders. Usually, it also includes Character styling attributes.
(c) Character – this styling is used to work on block of letters, i.e. word(s) in the paragraph instead
of the whole paragraph. By using character styles, you can change the appearance of a part of a
paragraph without affecting the other part. Character styles allow changing the text colour, text size,
highlighting text and emphasizing it.
(d) Frame – using frames, a document can be organized in sections, so that each section of the page
can have a different appearance. Frames are like containers, which can hold text, graphics and lists.
Therefore, applying Frame Styles allows to format a frame by specifying its size, position, border
and how the text is placed around the picture.
(e) List – to style lists in a document, the Writer provides a separate category. It can be used to style
lists by putting numbering or bullets of a different kind or specify numeric format.
(f) Table – using tables, a large amount of information can be organized and presented effectively.
Table Style category allows to format a table by adding borders, using different text or border
color(s), aligning text inside the table, having different patterns or text color.
