Headers for all required pages must be consistently formatted; they should be the same size, font, and style, and located in the same position on each page. They must start at the very top of the page, on the first line below the 1-inch margin.

Chapter Headers

Chapter headers are the only headers that can start lower on the page and be stylized in any manner, as long as they are consistent on each chapter title page.

Section Headers

It is common for a chapter to have multiple levels of section headers. These can be formatted differently than required or chapter headers, as long as there is a consistent style from chapter to chapter.

Running Headers

Your document should not have a running header that appears at the top of each page.

Page Margins

Page margins should be consistent throughout the text.

Required Margins:

The top, bottom, and right margins are required to be 1 inch, but the left margin can either be 1 inch or 1.25 inches.
All body text, tables, figures, appendices content, and any copies of published chapters must fit within the required 1-inch margins on all sides. Tables or images may have to be re-sized to fit within the margin. See the Tables and Figures page for more info.

Throughout your ETD, all text must start at the very top of the page. It is common for students to have trouble maintaining this consistency — often thanks to difficulty with Microsoft Word. The below instructions should help to specify the relevant settings in Microsoft Word and offer some helpful tips to maintaining consistency throughout your document.

Check that your top margin is set to 1 inch.
Check the page margin layout settings. On the “Layout” tab, in the “Margins” menu (found on the far left of the navigation bar), click “Custom Margins.” A “Page Setup” menu will appear. Under the “Layout” tab of this pop-up menu, make sure “Vertical alignment” is set to “Top.”
Make sure you don’t have extra space in the header. Double-click on the header and hit the down arrow. If there are extra lines in the header, below the page number, delete them.
Make sure there isn’t extra space between your text and the top of the page. All text must start on the first line at the very top of the page, just after the 1 inch margin line.

To more easily identify spacing inconsistencies as you scan your document, enable the “Gridlines” view:

If you are having trouble moving your text to the top of the page, check the “Header from Top” and “Footer from Bottom” settings.

Double-click within the header or footer to edit them.
Click the “Design” tab.
See the below screenshot:

Spacing

Spacing must be consistent throughout the document. This includes:

The amount of space between headers and body text.
Line spacing of your body text (starting on your abstract page).
Regardless of your text spacing, you should at least have a space between each entry on your table of contents, list of tables, list of figures, list of abbreviations, and reference pages.
There should be a minimum amount of space separating body text from tables and figures.

What is used to create layout or formatting changes in a portion of a document?

Use section breaks to change the layout or formatting in one section of your document. You can use section breaks to change the layout or formatting of pages in your document. To change formatting in a document, insert a section break at the beginning of where you want the change.

What are the two types of document formatting available in word?

In Microsoft Word, there are basically two types of formatting - character formatting and paragraph formatting.

Which command changes the font and paragraph formatting of an entire document quizlet?

A style set changes the font and paragraph formatting for an entire document. Style sets apply formatting based on styles. So, in order to see your changes, the text in your document must be formatted using styles. To learn more about applying styles to text, see the skill Using Styles.

When a section break is created you specify whether or not the new section should begin on a new page?

When a section break is created, you specify whether or not the new section should begin on a new page. To select a section break, point to its right until the mouse pointer changes direction and then click. By default, the number 1 displays in the Start at box in the Page Number Format dialog box.
