Receipt book format in word for Supervision

all right here we are in the last video in the formatting series on formatting your novel from scratch today I want to do a video that I actually did not plan to do when I started out putting together the series but I think it'll be really fun for you to see it all put together so putting together everything we've learned is not me re-sharing everything that I've shared cuz that would be a really long video I'm literally just going to show you a bunch of the steps all put together really really fast so I think hopefully it goes without saying that if you want to know actually how to do these things or why I do these things I need you to go back and watch the video on that subject they will all be linked Below in my formatting playlist and so thank you guys so much for supporting the series and being excited about it let's dive in we're going to start with a blank Microsoft Word document the first thing that we have to do before we do anything else is change the size because just looking at this like printer size paper it does not say novel to me and it's driving me crazy so we're going to go in format document into the page setup and it's us letter size but we're going to switch it over to my 5x8 if you want to know more about this check out my video on sizing and also my video on adding images cuz that's what we're going to do in this document so I want it to be a slightly larger than the actual 5x8 I'm click okay make sure it applies to the whole document step two let's put in a book title step three we're going to modify this to actually look like a book title I had that favorite font was it this one oh so pretty I'd like it to be bigger yeah really big um it should definitely be centered and let's give it a bunch of space before it that's above it on top and also a little space below it as well there we go enter let's put in a subtitle modify all subtitles so that they look I like that font actually but I would like it to be centered next we're going to go to layout put in a page break cuz we want to start a new page before we keep going though let's go back to the homepage to the style section normal is looking strange to me let's modify it let's make it smaller 11 points pretty average Times New Roman would be better just looks classier and then we do need to do a couple changes here cuz remember in the alignment we want it to be justified always we want to have that first line indented and then I think that's it so clicking okay so for that first line we don't want indented but we'll come back to that copyright that's how you make the symbol by the way C paragraph and the year is 2021 now which is crazy my name we're going to have the All Rights Reserved legal jargon paragraph right here contact info credits info ISBN info and addition info okay and then on the next page we're going to put in another page break this would be typically another title page so I might copy all this gorgeousness so I clicked crl a contrl c to copy and contrl V to paste it in and maybe that first title page I think I told you guys it's usually just the title and nothing else but this page let's insert an image with insert image picture from file and I actually want my grace House Press logo PNG file right there oh it's huge so we're going to resize it just my computer screen now cuz my camera has died and let's bump it down too far there we go now I'm going to go ahead and click next page want to zoom out this is what we have so far now you could put in tons more front and back matter here but let's just count here if the very first page of a book is always the right side then this is left side and then right side and then left side and I would like chapter one to start on the right so I'm going to have one more page break and then we're going to go back to Styles let's find our header that's book tpe oh shoot you know what I feel like let's start with this but we're going to modify it so chapter one let's zoom in so you guys can really see it well all right that looks terrible that does not look like a title or a book chapter to me so we're going to modify I'm going to call this my chapter header and then man I really really do like this so for the sake of keeping things simple we'll do that but definitely much bigger how about 36 looks pretty probably in the center would be better I love the preview here never blue cuz we we don't want to pay extra for color and then I'm also going to go into the paragraph option here because typically chapter headers start a little ways down the page so maybe I don't know say let's try this far and then typically they're going to have a little space after them as well okay okay there we go let me zoom out a bit so you can see that that is our chapter header if we click enter and we're going to say first line fanciness this is what's happening da da now you're going to notice that everything is indented here which which is fine for the second line we want that but for the first line we don't so let's grab we're going to make one of these our first line okay so first thing I'm going to do keep things life simple update to match selection and then I want to modify it I want to call this the first line of a chapter okay so it's times n Roman it's 11 but then here's where we want to make a slight change okay I'm going to go into the style paint actually and make a new style cuz that was getting funky so first line of a chapter okay and then the one thing that we're going to change because remember that first line does not have this um so honestly we could just do none and that's fine too click okay and okay so now there's our first chapter we're going to go ahead and high or first line sorry we're going to highlight it and instead of having it be the main body we're going to make it first line of the chapter see how it bounces over third line fourth line Etc now we' finished our chapter so we don't want to start chapter 2 on the same page next page it is and in this case where's my Styles I have a chapter header that I need to do now I'm noticing that that doesn't fit as nicely does it so we're going to go into our chapter headers modify all of them and make them just a wee bit smaller there we go that looks so much nicer and then now I'm going to click first line of the chapter and here's the first line oops I'm still in all caps line of chapter 2 and second line of chapter 2 you'll notice that we need to switch it over to main body which I clicked right there and there you go I would really like to insert some character art let's do this pretty picture of Ari right here and we don't want her to go on to two pages so we're going to set this up so that there's an anchor and then fix it on the page so that I can move it there we go let's zoom out and see what we have so far but what if I want to take one of my fun chapter headers that I made in our video on chapter headers well let's go ahead and download this first one that was my favorite doesn't exactly match our story but for the sake of this video it's going to work just fine if we were doing this in real life I would save this as my ebook version because for the ebook you need to have something that says what chapter it is for the ebooks to create a table of contents but for the sake of this video we're going to pretend that we've saved it as the paperback specific draft and we would like this one to say Chapter 1 what we're going to do is Click insert picture from file we're going to insert that chapter one look at that baby that looks so snazzy let's zoom in on it wow that is their first page of your book seriously I am like the best chapter header designer in the entire world obviously so amazing wow I just really like that and obviously If This Were a real book these would be full sentences that would continue on into further Pages if you liked how the chapter header looked here you wouldn't even have to worry about bleed because as you can see it is currently within the margins you wouldn't have to move it you wouldn't have to do anything cuz it looks gorgeous just like it is there you go my friends that is me putting all of the video information together I showed you how to make sure you include the 10 basic formatting rules how to input some different front and back matter how to size the book correctly and resize it if you need to how to choose different fonts how to add images how to add chapter headers and this is just such a fun process for me because I've gotten comfortable with it but don't be surprised if it takes you a little while to get to the Comfort level that I am this is me over 10 books into formatting I've done this for a very long time so it's totally normal if it takes you a little while to remember where to find things I would even encourage you to take notes if you need to go back and watch my videos they are always going to be available for you you can save that playlist if you would like so I hope this video series was super helpful to you again thank you so much for doing things like liking the videos sharing them with your friends subscribing to my channel
