Definition lists in Page view

Each item in a definition list has two parts: the term or phrase being defined, and the definition.

StepsTo create a definition list:

  1. Type the first term.

  2. With the cursor in the term paragraph, select Format>Paragraph from the menu bar and select the Definition Term paragraph style.

  3. Back in the editor, press enter and type the term's definition.

  4. In the editor, press enter and repeat the steps to create terms and definitions

    or

    Press enter twice to end the list.

NoteTyping definitions and formatting paragraphs in separate procedures Each time you press enter, you create another element of the same type. If you're in a Definition Term, pressing enter creates another term. Instead of formatting each paragraph right after you type it, you can apply formatting as needed to selected paragraphs.
