Previewing , painting and saving documents

Although you still plan to make several formatting changes to the document, you want to give a copy of the document to a friend to get feedback regarding the content and layout.

To save time and unnecessary printing and paper waste, it is always a good idea to preview on screen how your document will appear when printed. The “Print Preview” feature displays each page of your document in a reduced size so you can check the layout. Select “File → Print Preview” from the menu.

The Preview window displays a reduced view of how the current page will appear when printed. This view allows you to check your page layout before printing. The flyer looks good and does not appear to need any further modifications immediately.

The Preview window also includes its own toolbar. You can print the flyer directly from the Preview window using the “Print” button.

To save the current document, click the “Save” icon on the Toolbar.

In this interactive session, we will learn to view a print preview.
