The Document Map view shows you a list of headings and sub-heading within the document so that you can quickly get an idea of the structure and content of the document. There are a number of other options here too, indicated by a series of icons that sit at the top of the pane. You can then scroll through the document and jump straight to any page that you click on. It works rather like the sidebar in Apple’s Preview app, displaying thumbnail views of all the pages within your document. The Navigation Pane is very useful when working with longer, multi-page documents. Word 2016 promotes the Navigation Pane and now allows you to open it up more quickly by clicking on the page number indicator on the far left of the Status bar that runs along the bottom of your documents.
There’s been a Navigation Pane in Word for quite a few years, but it was often overlooked because the command used to activate it was buried within the program’s many menus and sub-menus.
You can also control the way that text and graphics combine on the page by adjusting the word-wrap controls, or grouping and aligning multiple elements on each page. There are typographic controls for adjusting line-spacing, indentation and margins, and hyphenation. The tools included here allow you to adjust the dimensions and orientation of individual pages, and to add multi-column text for documents such as newspapers or magazines. If you really want to drill down into the design of your documents then your next step is to click on the new Layout tab, which sits right next to the Design tab on the Ribbon. You can modify these themes if you want, and you can also add new elements, such as background colours or watermarks. Word has always included a number of templates for documents such as newsletters and reports, but the Design tab allows you to fine-tune those templates with a variety of ‘themes’, which include typefaces and colour schemes that are chosen to complement each other.
The Design tab controls the overall look and style of your documents. There are a number of other new tabs in the Ribbon, each of which focuses on a specific type of task.
