How to Set Paragraph Styles in Word 2007
Microsoft Word 2007 was the first version of Word to feature the Ribbon interface, which replaced the traditional menu bar seen in earlier versions. You can use the "Styles" section of the Ribbon to quickly set paragraph styles in sections of your document. Paragraph styles define how the text in a paragraph is formatted as well as line spacing, text alignment and tab positioning.
