Apply a Style from the Style dialog box

You can apply a style from the Style dialog box. You may find this particularly helpful because it allows you to choose from a larger selection of styles than are available from the Styles drop-down menu and allows you to preview a style before you actually apply it to your document.

Let's apply a style using the Style dialog box by following these easy steps:

• Place your cursor within the paragraph you want to add a particular style
• Select Format from the Menu bar
• Select Style
• Choose All from the List drop-down menu to view all styles available
• Preview several styles by highlighting the name of the style
• Select the style you want to apply to the paragraph
• Select Apply
• Select Close
