Banners are a specification in ancient calligraphy. Banners made in modern times are often propaganda banners, including banners on websites and banners that can often be seen in streets, squares and in front of gates. Because of its low cost, it can play a good role in advertising and is widely used.
making
(1) setting the paper size of the banner: for the banner, you need to set a specific paper size. A4 paper is the default paper size of Word, and ordinary printers can only print A4(21×29.7 cm) paper at most. If only one word is printed on a piece of A4 paper, the maximum size of the word can only be 17×26.7 cm. If you want to make a larger banner and the printer can print A3 paper, I suggest you set the paper size to A3.
(2) Setting margins: The setting of margins is very important for banner making. Click the Page Setup command under the File menu. In the Page Setup dialog box that pops up, select the Page Margin tab, and then you can enter the page margin value according to the actual situation. It should be noted that the size of the margins will be affected by the printing ability of the printer. Set the top, bottom, left and right margins to 2 cm here. Through page setting and margin setting, a framework for banner characters is initially made.
(3) Set the page view size: Since only one word is entered on a document page during the banner making process, the best view is to be able to see the whole page of the document. The setting method is as follows: After switching the view mode to page view, click the drop-down button of display ratio on the Standard toolbar, and select the command option of "Full Page" from the drop-down options to complete the setting.
(4) Insert WordArt WordArt: There are many ways to deal with oversize characters on similar banners in Word. Here, you can make banners with special effects with the WordArt program that comes with Word. Click WordArt on the Picture submenu under the Insert menu, and select a WordArt style in the WordArt Font dialog box. Here we choose the first style as an example, and click OK to open the Edit WordArt Text dialog box. Enter the first word "New" of the banner in the Edit WordArt Text dialog box, and then click the font drop-down bar in the Edit WordArt Text dialog box to select a font with thick strokes (such as "Bold") as the font of the banner. You can set the size of the text in the font size drop-down bar, and the default value is 36. Since the size of WordArt will be changed below, the font size here can be chosen at will. For editing convenience, you can set the font size to the maximum. There are two tool buttons "Bold" and "Tilt" on the right side of the font size drop-down bar. You can choose to use these two buttons according to your needs. Click OK to finish inserting the WordArt.
(5) Set the size and position of WordArt: Click the Format WordArt button on the WordArt toolbar, select the Size drop-down bar in the Format WordArt dialog box that appears, clear the Lock Aspect Ratio check box (the default value has been cleared), and then enter 26.7 cm and 17 cm in the height and width number fields respectively. Then click the Layout tab in the Format WordArt dialog box, select Embedded in the Wrap Mode column, and click OK to finish the setting. By adjusting the settings, you can change the size of the WordArt so that it can be extended to the whole paper.
(6) Set the fill color and line color of WordArt: The first WordArt style in WordArt was selected earlier. The default fill color of this style is white, and the default line color is black. Because we only want to print the border of the text when printing the banner text, this setting is just right for us to print the banner, and there is no need to modify it. If it is not the default setting, you can also set it manually by clicking the Format WordArt button on the WordArt toolbar, selecting the Color and Line tab in the Format WordArt dialog box, and clicking the color drop-down bar in the Fill Options Bar to select white or colorless. Click the color drop-down bar in the line options bar and select black. Click the virtual and real drop-down bar in the line options bar to select a solid line. In the thickness number column of the line options bar, you can set the thickness of the outline line (the default value is .75 points). Click OK to complete the setup.
(7) Print banner words: Banner words can already be printed here. If you can't print the whole text when printing, you can appropriately reduce the wordart. After the first banner word is input and printed, it is much more convenient to make the rest of the banner words. Since the line format and character size of the remaining banner characters must be the same as the first character, we can print other characters in the banner by the following methods (in fact, this method is the easiest and not easy to make mistakes): click the Edit Text tool button on the WordArt toolbar, enter the second banner word "Year" in the WordArt text editing dialog box (delete the "New" word while entering), and click OK. Repeat the above operation, and then enter and print the rest of the text in the banner.
(8) Drawing and cutting banner paper: After printing all the characters, you can draw the characters on special banner paper and then cut them off. If the printer can print directly on the banner paper, it can be cut directly without drawing. The cut banner paper can be used, and we have finished making the banner.
(9) making banner text template: in order to make banners more convenient in the future, you can save the banner text document made for the first time as a template. In this way, when making banners in the future, just call up the template. How to create a banner template: After all the formatting of the wordart in the banner text document is completed, click the Save As command under the file menu, click the save type drop-down bar in the Save As dialog box, and select the option of "document template *.dot", and the save location of the file will be automatically switched to the Templates directory. Enter "Banner" as the file name in the file name field, and click OK to save the template. In this default storage location, the "Banner" template will be put together with the common template (normal.dot), and the next time you make a banner, you can directly call this banner template without having to start from scratch.
(1) Make a banner for the second time by using the template: Open Word23 word processing software, click the New command under the File menu, and select common options in the new dialog box that appears. Select the "Banner" option in the options bar under this option bar, and click OK. Word will create a new document from the "Banner" template, and this document will keep the banner text you saved in the template. Replace and print the banner text in the document one by one with the text of the new banner you want to make. Close the newly created document (without saving) to complete the operation.
