I have an A4 word document, with about 10 styles, chapter & book titles in
headers and page numbers in footers.
I have to convert this document to a 'book' format. This means a special page
size, different font, substitution of styles, probably some changes to the
chapters and the paragraph formatting has to change to justified + first line
indent + exact line spacing/ paragraph spacing.
I tried working with a copy of the existing A4 document and resizing the page
and changing styles but that produced a lot of inconsistencies - and real
problems if you made an changes from the "page layout" menu. So this does not
seem a good idea.
My current plan is to make a new template with the page size and styles set and
add some dummy text to to produce a good working template - and then copy /
paste the text, from the existing document, to book one chapter at a time.
I was wondering, before I embark on this exercise, if there were any drawbacks
with this idea or perhaps better ways of doing this?
All suggestions appreciated.
Thanks,
Steven
