When you have inserted a sketch, table or graph you can select
it, then use the pen to drag one of the “handles” to resize it. You
can tap an object to edit it again. You can also format an object to
resize it, or crop the edges to control the amount of the object
displayed, by highlighting it and using the Object commands on
the Edit menu.
You can also use the Format object command to display an
object as an icon of the program that created it to save space on
screen. To set a preference so that objects are always displayed
as icons when first created, use Object preferences on the
Tools menu.
Some objects, e.g. sounds from Record, are always displayed as
icons and cannot be formatted. Tapping the icon (or selecting it
and pressing Enter) opens a copy of Record so that you can play
the sound.
Important: Note that inserting objects into a file causes a
considerable increase in file size.

Spell checking
To check the spelling of a Word file, tap the Spell button on the
Toolbar or select the command from the Tools menu (to check
the spelling of a single word or phrase, highlight it first). Spell will
display any words that are not found in the Spell dictionary,or
included in the Personal dictionary (if applicable). You can then:
• correct the unrecognised word. Type in the correct spelling,
or choose from the list of suggested alternatives.
• ignore the word and leave it unchanged in the Word file, or
ignore all instances of the word in the file.
• add the word to Spell’s Personal dictionary.
See the ‘Spell’ chapter for more about spell checking.

Creating a new file
To create a new Word file, use the Create new file command
on the File menu in Word or the System screen. If you do this in
the Word program you can enter a filename and location and
select a “template” for the new file.

File templates
A template is a document design that you can use as a starting
point for new documents. The template can include text,
paragraph styles and page layout information. When you create a
new document using a template, Word copies the information in
the template into the new file which you can then change as you
require. For example, you can use the standard Fax template to
create a fax - the template includes the coversheet text and you
can add the fax details and number.
You can select from a number of standard templates. When you
open a document using a particular template, you then work on
a document based on the template; you don’t change the
template itself.

Creating a template
If you can’t find a suitable built-in template, you can create your
own file template. To do this:
1. Create the Word file with the text, styles, page layout,
headers, footers, and so on that you want to include in the
template. Note that other settings such as the cursor
position and printer setup are also stored.
If you want to change an existing template, open a new
document using the template and make the changes to this
Word file.
