Re: text questions

You can change the text box defaults
Format, text style.

There is the painter tool. Have you used it? Publisher's help files are a great
asset.

Have you tried working with the text wrapping? You can edit the wrap anyway you
want.

I'm setting up a children's book for someone (a "dummy" book, with the text
the person wrote, and the author is going to do the pictures on) is there a
specific way to center it on the page? Neither of us know much about it.
Does it have to be on the bottom of the page (or most of it should be) with
the pictures above it?

Should it be centered (like selected and "center" icon in toolbar used,
rather than left margin? This looks good, except if one word ends up in the
middle, by itself, and then I've been moving it back up to the line (knocking
it off center) Maybe it doesn't really matter, if and when the book is
printed it would be set up by the printer?

I know, there are children's books,like Dr Suess, where the text and
pictures are all over the pages, but is there a standard to follow?

Also, I'm setting up another books that's mainly pictures with text boxes
and captions under them. I put on the picture first, to see what it's going
to be, then the text box and word(s). One page at a time. Rather than doing
all the pictures and then doing the text (I haven't tried this so don't know
if it would stay on the font and size I want this way) Each time I do this
(picture-text) I have to change the font name and size back to the one I'm
using for the overall book. I've looked all over and don't see how the
specific font/size can be set as default for this project. So, it will stay on
the font and size I want on each page as I go along?

I have Publisher 2000.

Thanks,

Carrie
