Styles and TemplatesThis book is an extract from a much larger book entitled Designing with LibreOffice. It is intended for those who only want information on using styles and templates with LibreOffice, the popular free-licensed office suite. It consists of Chapters 2, 3 and 11 in the larger book. This book is the first of five extracts from the complete book. The extracts are: Part 1: Styles and Templates, Part 2: Choosing Fonts, Part 3: Character and Paragraph Styles, Part 4: Page, Frame, and List Styles, Part 5: Slide Shows, Diagrams, and Spreadsheets. Together, the five smaller books will contain most, but not all, of the information from the larger book. Any changes are minimal, and made for continuity or changes in structure made necessary by the changes in format. |
