Design Toolbar

Design Tab contains all the features to change the look or style of our document in one place. These all are preset or readymade themes in Word...... 

In the Design tab, we have two blocks Document Formatting and Page Background.

 

In Document Formatting block or group, there are Themes, Colors, Fonts, Paragraph Spacing, Effects, and Set as Default options.

  • The Themes option gives our document instant style and a professional look. Each theme uses a unique set of colors, font, and effects to create a consistent look and effect.
  • The colors option quickly changes or updates all the colors by picking a different color palette and any theme colors in our document. after that, our document looks perfectly organized.
  • Fonts option is an easy way to change all of our text styles in the document at once. 
  • The Paragraph Spacing option changes our entire document's spacing, including a new paragraph. We can choose this option between predefined values or specified our own.
  • Effects option quickly changes the general look of objects in our document. Each option uses various borders and visual effects, such as shading and shadow, to give our objects a different look.
  • We can use the Set as Default option's style for all the new documents. For that, we will save our current document style settings so that every time we create a blank document it will be formatted, just the way we want. This is perfect if we have a favorite font or always want specific paragraph spacing.
In the Page Background block, there are Watermark, Page color, and Page Borders. 


  • A Watermark is a graphic impression or word that displays behind the text in a written document. 
Watermarks are usually very light, large font, and they don’t interfere or disturb reading the text in our document and making the document easy to read. If we create Watermark so dark, it will make the document difficult to read.

A Watermark is a logo, text, or shape. which we can't remove or erase from the document. it is frequently used in important documents like passports, envelopes, stamps, etc, and also used to prevent faking and for identification purposes.

Choosing a Watermark from the menu will apply to every page in the document. To change the text of the Watermark, click Custom Watermark… at the bottom of the Watermark menu to open the Printed Watermark dialogue box.

  • With the help of the Page Color option, we can add any color in the background of the page or document as per our choice. It gives a page or document a very good impression and visual attraction. 
Apart from the color, we can also choose to apply various effects like Gradient, Texture, Fill effects, Picture, and Pattern.

When we apply background color to our page or document, it is only be applied to that particular document. These changes do not affect default settings.

  • A Page Border option adds or changes the border around the page and around the text. 

The Page Border gives focus and adds a stylish touch to our document. We can create a border using a variety of line styles, widths, colors, and shading or choose an art border.
