6 simple rules of text formatting in Google Docs, so as not to enrage the editor

Editor 'Netologii "Pavel Fedorov article It tells how minimally formatted text in Google Docs, so it was convenient to work with. Layfhaker publish the text unchanged with the author's permission.

I work a lot with documents and a dream to erect a monument to the person who came up with Google Docs. Because it is the most convenient tool for working with text. Unlike desktop software, do not need to download files (and confused in versions), do not need to write the letter "I marked zholtenkim that do not like" and hastily peresohranyat * .docx in * .rtf because because. In short, some solid advantages.

Maxim Ilyahov wrote a blog about text hygiene - the minimum word processing, after which the editor can generally be made to work without fear of mad. I will continue the theme and briefly tell you how to observe this most hygiene at work with Google Docs, if you rent the text editor.

1. reset formatting

If the text you wrote first in another editor, when transferred to Google Docs format reset.

Google Docs - a working tool. Font vorstke to play on, but now all the bells and whistles to nothing. If the editor will see a bunch of different fonts, the first thing will throw formatting options - and with them will fly all the bold text, italics and trying to play fancy vorstku.

2. Do not change the font

If you do not like the standard - replace the font that is used by default. The secret is that if someone will append the text in your document, then there is no guarantee that he will turn the same font that you put your hands to it, so it was.

When you write text and rent, the extra fonts knock.

3. Do not do subtitles in large print

If properly build headers, then Google Docs from the left edge of the display structure of the document.

Sometimes, luck, and subheads that are simply made bold, too, recognized and incorporated into the structure, but more often not.

Some do subtitles hands: change the font size increases. So the writer just takes your head with unnecessary information. Simply select the subtitle, and set the formating "Heading 2" or "Heading 3" - a preset formatting for headings.

I do not know how the CMS on the other, but in the blog "Netologii" when transferring text from Google Docs format header not break - a nice little thing for the editor.

4. Let's links to pictures

From Google Docs you can get pictures, but you need to download the file, rename, remove both from the archive. Do you think you need a Zapara editor?

Rule of etiquette: If a document contains images, or give a link where they can download or send files to the post office.

Even after the publication of the material Arseniy Kamushev suggested how to quickly save images from Google Docs. To do this, simply publish the document.

5. Add space before paragraph

This item - net vkusovschina, but I insist.

If you add a space before the paragraph, do not have to beat the passages between a blank line to separate them.

6. Do not paint the text

Even nothing to say. Multi-colored text, different fonts and different sizes - complete hell. Once I sent a document on the first page of which I counted 4 different font sizes 5, 2 different color of the substrate and the color 3 colors. Raskrasochka. Immediately I dropped formatting.

repeat the learned

1. Not Wise formatting.

2. Do not play with fonts.

3. For the sub-headings have finished formatting.

4. Send images separately.

5. Add a space before or after a paragraph automatically, not your hands.

6. Do not make a rainbow text.
