Figure 1-12: The Reading Layout view.
Outline view
Outline is a specialized view that you can use to organize a document. In Outline view, you
can collapse and expand portions of the document so that you see only the headings of your
choice. You also can quickly and easily move as well as copy large portions of a document in
Outline view. The real key to using this view efficiently is to use Heading styles because Word
recognizes these styles immediately in Outline view. Figure 1-13 shows a document in
Outline view.
Document Map view
Choosing View➪ Document Map or clicking the Document Map button on the Standard tool-
bar while in any document view displays a vertical pane along the left edge of the document
window. An outline of the document’s structure appears in this vertical pane. Figure 1-14
shows the Document Map as it appears in Normal view. Note the headings listed in the left
pane. You can use Document Map to quickly browse a long document or an online document
and to keep track of your location within it. The Document Map view works in conjunction
with Heading Styles.
Using the Document Map is a good way to get an outline view of your document even if you
haven’t used heading styles (see Chapter 25 for a discussion of Word’s Outline feature). If
you are given a document, for example, that has been badly formatted, you can use the
Document Map view in your clean-up process.
