Enhance your Google Docs

1. Enhance your Google Docs

narrator: Welcome to Module Three, Enhance your Google Docs Document. So far, you've created a document, added formatting, and moved it to a location where it's easily accessible. In this module, you'll learn how to make the document even more functional by creating a table of contents, adding headers and footers, and inserting links and bookmarks. How often do you need to include graphics in your documents? Well, Google Docs supports the addition of content like images, drawings and charts. Adding content to a document is done via the Insert menu. Select Insert, then choose the type of content you want to insert. Let's take some time to walk through the Insert menu in order to see some of the ways you can enhance your documents. Adding a table of contents to a document is simple. The Table of Contents is automatically generated when you use the title and heading styles in the document. Place the cursor in the document where you want the table of contents to appear. Then choose Insert, Table of Contents. Then choose the table of contents style you want to add to your document. Headers and footers are not visible until they are added to the document. After a header or footer is added, double click the top of the document for headers or at the bottom for footers to add content and change the settings. Both the header and footer can display page numbers.
