If you want, you can nest Character Styles. I Paragraph Styles Use Paragraph Styles to format paragraphs, including the font type and size. You can also select the paragraph style to apply to the next paragraph. I Frame Styles Use Frame Styles to format text and graphic frames. Wrocław University of Technology Styles I Page Styles Use Page Styles to organize the structure of the document, and to add page numbers. You can also specify the page style to apply to the rst page that follows after a page break. I Numbering Styles Use Numbering Styles to format numbered or bulleted lists. Wrocław University of Technology Styles I I I Paragraph styles. Paragraph styles include not just font type and size but also formatting for a whole paragraph's text positioning and spacing. A paragraph style can be applied to one or more paragraphs. Character styles These are applied at the character level to blocks of words and letters rather than the paragraph level. An example would be an "emphasis" style that applies, say, both an underline and italic type. List styles and table styles These two other types of styles provide a consistent look to tables and lists, Wrocław University of Technology Illustrations Wrocław University of Technology Illustrations There are, in general, two types of graphic formats: Wrocław University of Technology Illustrations There are, in general, two types of graphic formats: 1. vector Wrocław University of Technology Illustrations There are, in general, two types of graphic formats: 1. vector 2. bitmap Wrocław University of Technology Illustrations There are, in general, two types of graphic formats: 1. vector 2. bitmap Very often illustrations are compressed.

Remember that talking to an audience takes longer than talking to a mirror. Leslie Lamport, How to present a paper, [1] Wrocław University of Technology Presentation You are now thinking: All those dull speakers I've listened to should use these rules, but I don't need them because my talks are interesting. All those dull speakers are now thinking exactly the same thing. Read the rules again with the proper humility. They apply to everyone. The only wisdom we can hope to acquire Is the wisdom of humility: humility is endless. Wrocław University of Technology Your hardware I Know your laptop.
