# Chapter 4. Step by Step Tutorial

# 4.1. Choosing the initial template

| NOTE: The steps to this tutorial are numbered from 1 thru 22. Beneath each step, is text in italics. This text will explain what the previous step in the tutorial acomplished. Also, you will notice a red rectangle on each screenshot. This rectangle outlines the next object you will need to push/change/click/etc. Obviously a red rectangle will not appear when you are running KWord.

When you first start KWord (or start a new document after KWord is running), a dialog appears.

This dialog box is used to:

1. To select the initial template for your new document

2. Open a KWord Document saved to your hard drive or network.

3. Start KWord without any document started.

For your first document:

Step 1: Click on the Publishing tab.

This will list the Desktop Publishing icons available on your system.

Step 2: Now select the "Simple Layout" icon by clicking once with the left button of your mouse.

This is the template we will use for the tutorial

Step 3: Now confirm your selection by clicking on "OK"

To complete your selection

KWord will open a new document with 3 frames. The frames are outlined on the white background, as grey boxes. Each box is a separate frame.
