You can use styles to quickly apply a set of formatting choices consistently throughout your document. If you want formatting choices that are not available from the built-in styles and themes available in Word, you can modify an existing style and customize it to suit your needs. You can change the formatting (such as font size, color, and text indentation) in styles applied to titles, headings, paragraphs, lists, and so on. You can also select formatted text in your document to create a new style in the Styles gallery.

The styles covered in this article are located in the Styles gallery, a visual menu located on the Home tab. To apply a style, simply select the text you want to format, and then click the style you want in the Styles gallery. To learn more, see Apply a style to text in Word.

Modify an existing style

You can modify an existing style in the Styles gallery in two ways:

  • Modify a style by updating it to match formatting in your document

  • Modify a style manually in the Modify Style dialog box

Modify a style by updating it to match formatting in your document

If you have text in your document that already has a style applied, you can change the formatting of that text and apply it to the style in the Styles gallery.

  1. Select text in your document that has the style applied, such as Heading 1.

    When you select text that has a style applied, that style is highlighted in the Styles gallery.

  2. Format the selected text with the new attributes that you want.

    For example, you might want to change the point size for the Heading 1 style from 16 points to 14 points.

  3. On the Home tab, in the Styles group, right-click the style that you want to change, and then click Update [Style Name] to Match Selection.

    Note: All text with the style that you changed will automatically change to match the new style that you defined.

Modify a style manually in the Modify Style dialog box

You can modify a style directly in the Styles gallery, without using the text in your document.

  1. On the Home tab, right-click any style in the Styles gallery and click Modify.

  2. In the Formatting section, make any formatting changes you want, such as font style, size, or color, alignment, line spacing, or indentation.

  3. Choose whether the style change applies to the current document or to all future documents.

  1. Right-click the text on which you want to base a new style.

  2. In the mini toolbar that appears, click Styles, and then click Create a Style.

Как создать новый стиль в Ворде

Для большего удобства использования Microsoft Word, разработчики этого текстового редактора предусмотрели большой набор встроенных шаблонов документов и набор стилей для их оформления. Пользователи, которым обилия средств по умолчанию будет недостаточно, могут с легкостью создать не только свой шаблон, но и собственный стиль. Как раз о последнем мы и поговорим в данной статье.

Урок: Как в Ворде сделать шаблон

Все доступные стили, представленные в Word, можно просмотреть на вкладке «Главная», в группе инструментов с лаконичным названием «Стили». Здесь можно выбрать различные стили оформления заголовков, подзаголовков и обычного текста. Здесь же можно создать и новый стиль, используя в качестве его основы уже имеющийся или же, начиная с нуля.

Microsoft Word Styles are the most basic building blocks in Word. One of the first things you’ll need to learn after you master the interface and basic formatting is using the Quick Styles listed on the Home tab. Often, though, the Quick Styles don’t contain a particular Style your document needs.

If the default Microsoft Word Styles don’t fully meet your needs (for example, you need one for block quotes), you can create a new one. There are a couple of different ways to do this. I’ll start with what I think is the easiest one first.

Creating a new Style from an example

If you’ve already got some text formatted just the way you want it (going back to the previous example, a block quotation that’s already nicely indented with all the right paragraph settings), you can use it to create a new Style. The easiest way is to select the text you want the Style to emulate, right-click and select Styles, then select Create a Style:

Word-2016-create-Style-from-example-1

Word 2013-2016 – click to enlarge
Word 2010 - click to enlarge
Word 2010 – click to enlarge

You’ll get this dialog box:

Word-2016-create-Style-from-example-2

You could simply click OK here, but I want you to see what your options are in case you want something other than the defaults Word will choose for you:

Word-2016-create-Style-from-example-3

  1. Word will automatically name this Style1; you’ll want to rename it here if you did not already do it in the previous dialog box as I did.
  2. Word has several Style types: Paragraph, Character, Linked (which combines Paragraph and Character), Table and List. Since this is really intended to be a collection of paragraph settings, Linked isn’t really the best choice, because if I change the font style or size elsewhere in the document and apply Block Quote as a Linked Style, it’s going to change the text back to Calibri 11. The Style type Paragraph is a better choice in this instance.
  3. If I’m typing a Block Quote paragraph and I press the Enter key, what Style do I want the following paragraph to default to? That’s the question answered here. It’s a matter of personal convenience and obviously depends on what sort of document you’re working on.
  4. Any changes you make in formatting (see 7) will show up in this Preview window …
  5. … and you can review the settings themselves in this window.
  6. These settings control three things: (a) whether you can access this Style in the Styles Gallery on the Home tab (if you want to keep this one handy, leave that box checked); (b) whether you want any Styles to automatically update themselves based on manual formatting you do in your document (for example, if you altered the indentation on one paragraph that had the Block Quote Style applied to it, checking this box means that the Style itself reflects those changes, and all the paragraphs with Block Quote applied will change, not just the one you edited). I recommend leaving this one unchecked—it tends to wreak havoc in documents; (c) whether you want this Style to be available only within this document or any documents you create in the future in this template.
  7. You can make further format changes to your Style settings in both these places. The area at the top will let you make some font and spacing changes, but Format button will take you to various dialog boxes (Paragraph, Numbering, etc.) for more advanced formatting.

Once you’ve configured everything to your liking, click OK.

Creating a new Style from scratch

If you’ve got a specific set of requirements and are fairly adept with character and paragraph formatting, though, you can simply create a new Style from scratch. For this example, I’m going to create one for quoted deposition text.

To start, click the drop-down arrow at the bottom right-hand corner of the Quick Styles area to open the Styles pane:

Word-2013-Styles-dropdown

Then click Create a Style:

Word-2013-Styles-create-new-style-1

You’ll get the now-familiar dialog box:

Word-2013-Styles-create-new-style-2

You’ll notice that I designated this to be a Paragraph Style. Since this Style is intended to control how the text indents and spaces, I want it to be independent of font settings, etc., so I can use it with any font settings in any document.

To get those indents and spacing, click on the Format button at the bottom and choose Paragraph to go to the Paragraph dialog box:

Word-2013-Styles-create-new-style-3

I did three things here (circled in red):

  1. I chose a half-inch hanging indent
  2. I selected Single spacing
  3. I inserted 12 points of space between the paragraphs and made a point of instructing Word to insert that space even between paragraphs of this same Style.

You can preview the results in the Preview pane (circled in blue above).

Once I click OK in both the Paragraph and New Style dialog boxes (making sure to check the settings at the bottom) and return to my document, applying the Style to the text is a matter of two clicks:

Word-2013-apply-depo-quote-style

Lesson 29: Applying and Modifying Styles

/en/word2016/smartart-graphics/content/

Introduction

A style is a predefined combination of font style, color, and size that can be applied to any text in your document. Styles can help your documents achieve a more professional look and feel. You can also use styles to quickly change several things in your document at the same time.

Optional: Download our practice document.

Watch the video below to learn more about using styles in Word.

To apply a style:

  1. Select the text you want to format, or place your cursor at the beginning of the line.

To create a new style:

  1. Click the arrow in the bottom-right corner of the Styles group.

    clicking the arrow in the bottom-right corner of the Styles group

Styles in Ms-Word are formats that determine the appearance of the text in the document. There are some predefined styles in Word like Normal, Title, Heading1, Subtitle, etc. These styles have a predefined font, size, color, etc. You can create your own style also.

Steps to Create a new style in Word:

Step 2: The  Create New Style from Formatting dialog box appears.

Step 3: Make the required changes like name, style based on, alignment, size, font etc.

Step 4: Click  OK.

Explanation: Pic 1 contains the previous formatting we made, in pic 2 we changed the style based on, color and alignment.

The changed style is:

Now if we will write any text based on this style then it will be written with the same color, alignment, and heading.

Step 5: To modify the already saved style, right-click on the style and select Modify.
