Writing a Book with WordPerfect

But vetting those tools and determining which fit best with your writing style takes time. That's why we've done the heavy lifting for you. The following 15 writing tools help you brainstorm, research, write, and edit better and faster—and they're all free to use. Brainstorming Software. Researching Software. Writing Software. Editing Software. Manuscript Guidelines 1.0 February 2013 2 1 Introduction. Publishing a book is a joint effort between you and Springer. We feel it is important that our authors concentrate on the content of the chapter or a book. When writing a book for Springer, please do not be concerned with the final layout. That is Springer's role. Despite a plethora of forums for presenting the original research work, very little of it ever gets published in a scientific journal, and even if it does, the manuscripts are usually from the same few institutions.1,2 It serves the purpose of academic recognition; and certain publications may even contribute to shaping various national policies.

If you've always wanted to write a book, and have a copy of WordPerfect®, you already have everything you need to get started. Just add your ideas and your unique sense of creativity. Lightcapture 1 0 7 – streamlined way to take screenshots. While you may not realize it, you have in your possession a collection of the most powerful tools on the market to help keep long, complex documents organized, easy to navigate, and easy to read.

Researching Your Topic with WordPerfect® Lightning™

It's the perfect tool for writers because you can start with a skeleton of ideas and then flesh them out as you continue your research. Each idea or thread in a story can be assigned to a folder with the underlying material stored within that folder. Elements that are likely to be used multiple times in your manuscript can be quickly located and inserted where appropriate.

Are you collaborating with someone else on your book project? You'll be thrilled to learn that WordPerfect Lightning comes with 200MB of free online storage, plus shared calendaring, contacts, and e-mail functionality. Files, notes, and Web clippings associated with WordPerfect Lightning are available to view and share, so it's a breeze to exchange information.

While you can add light formatting to notes in Lightning, you'll want to send your notes to WordPerfect for the heavy stuff. When you're finished conducting your research on a topic or chapter, you can send your Lightning notes to WordPerfect, where they are assembled into a document.

And, here's the best part — WordPerfect Lightning is free. Seriously.

Adding Page Numbers

To start numbering your pages, choose Format > Page > Numbering to open the Select Page Numbering Format dialog box (see Figure 1). The option to insert a page number at the bottom of every page is selected by default (see the Position list box), so you simply have to click OK.

Alternatively, you can choose a different position from the Position list box, and then click OK.

The most popular page number position, bottom center, is selected by default in the Page Numbering dialog box.

Inserting Headers and Footers

Creating a Table of Contents

WordPerfect has a collection of built-in styles that you can take advantage of when you don't have the time or inclination to create your own. The heading styles can be used to quickly format headings and subheadings in a larger, boldface font, with the table of contents marking already in place. All you have to do then is define the table of contents and generate.

To apply WordPerfect's heading styles, select the heading, then choose Format > Paragraph > Indent to open the Styles dialog box. Select Heading 1 from the list of Available styles to see a preview of how the text will look with that style applied (see Figure 2).

The built-in heading styles are a quick way to format text and mark it for a table of contents.

Heading 1 marks the text for table of contents level 1; Heading 2 marks the text as level 2, and so on. When you are ready, select the heading style for the selected heading, then click OK.

If you prefer more flexibility, and have a little time, it's super easy to mark text for a table of contents. All you do is select the text and pick the table of contents level. The trick is to make sure you aren't accidentally selecting formatting codes, like bold or italics, otherwise the text will show up in bold or italics in the table of contents. It's a good idea to turn on Reveal Codes (press Alt+F3) so you can see exactly what you are selecting.

With the text selected, choose Tools > Reference > Table of Contents to open the Reference Tools dialog box. Click the Mark 1 button to mark the text for level 1, Mark 2 to mark the text for level 2, and so on. Continue selecting text in the document and marking it for the appropriate level.

If the Reference Tools dialog box is displayed across the bottom of the screen, you can click and drag the title bar to release it into a floating palette (see Figure 3) that you can move out of your way.

The Reference Tools dialog box can be anchored to the top or bottom of the screen, or released into a floating palette. Resolume arena 4 2 1 download free.

Now, whether you used the built-in heading styles, or marked the text yourself, the next step is to define the table of contents. First, create a page for the table and center the title 'Table of Contents' at the top of the page. Insert a couple of blank lines, then choose Tools > Reference > Table of Contents. Click the Define button to open the Define Table of Contents dialog box. The simplest method is just to select the number of levels you want in the Number of Levels drop-down list, then click OK. Otherwise, you can customize the formatting for each level of the table.

When you click OK, WordPerfect inserts the dummy text. If the placement looks good, choose Tools > Reference > Generate, then click OK to build the table.

Creating an Index

Every instance of an index entry has to be marked. Otherwise, the list of page numbers next to the entry won't be complete. After you mark the first occurrence, use the Find and Replace feature to locate the other occurrences in the document, and then move on to the next index entry.

Choose Tools > Reference > Index to display the Index tab of the Reference Tools dialog box (see Figure 4). Select the text for the entry, then click in the Heading text box to mark this entry as a heading or click in the Subheading text box to mark this entry as a subheading – WordPerfect inserts the selected text in the text box. If you are marking this entry as a subheading, type the heading that you want it to fall under in the Heading text box, then click Mark.

The Index tab has buttons to speed up the process of marking the entries and creating the index.

Tip: The heading and subheading text don't have to match the text that you selected in the document. You can type exactly what you want to appear in the index heading (and subheading). This is helpful when the text in the document doesn't fit well in the index.

Defining the index is similar to defining a table of contents, except an index is assembled at the end of a document. To set up and create an index page, move to the end of the document and press Ctrl+Enter to create a new page. At the top of the new page, type a heading for the index.

Choose Tools > Reference > Index to display the Index tab of the Reference Tools dialog box. Click the Define button on the Index tab of the Reference Tools dialog box to display the Define Index dialog box (see Figure 5).

You can use the Define Index dialog box to select a page number format and position. You can also edit the heading and subheading styles and specify a concordance file.

If you want to use the default settings, you can simply click OK. Otherwise, make the necessary adjustments, then click OK. The following text is inserted at the insertion point: < >. Click Generate (in the Reference Tools dialog box). Click OK to build the index.

Using Document Map to Navigate Long Documents

Choose View > Document Map to display the document map. You can click a marker in the left pane to jump to that text in the document (see Figure 6).

The Document Map offers a convenient method to navigate through a lengthy document.

Working with Master Documents and Subdocuments

A master document is essentially a document that is full of links to other files. Each of the 'other files' is called a 'subdocument'. You and your co-authors can divide up the chapters and work on them individually. Whenever you like, you can compile all of the individual chapters into one big work. When you 'expand' the master document, each of the subdocuments is opened into the master document, which results in one huge document. Now, you can work with the entire manuscript, searching and replacing and making global formatting changes.

For more information, see the tutorial titled 'Working with Master Documents and Subdocuments'.

If you're a writer seeking tools to help you with tasks such as research, organization, and formatting, you've probably heard of Scrivener, the writing software created by Literature and Latte. For quite a few years, Scrivener has been one of the leading and most comprehensive software suites made exclusively for writers. There have been several important updates over the years and the current version, Scrivener 3, is now available for Mac while Windows users can expect the update to be released shortly.

This review is designed for people who are new to Scrivener as well as anyone who has an older version and may not be familiar with the update. Whether you ultimately choose to use Scrivener or a competing product, you owe it to yourself to learn the various features and benefits of this renowned software product for writers.

Overview: What Can Scrivener Do For You?

Scrivener is a tool for serious writers. It helps you in a variety of ways.

• Helps you organize long writing projects such as novels, nonfiction books, academic papers, even scripts.
• Simplifies Editing is an essential part of any writing project. Scrivener has many tools to help you edit more efficiently whether it's correcting simple errors or restructuring entire sections and chapters.
• Enhances o An outline helps you clarify your ideas and plan your manuscript. Scrivener's system of folders and subfolders helps you arrange and rearrange the various parts of your writing project.
• Formatting for screenwriters. Without the right tools, you can end up spending half your time worrying about formatting. Scrivener lets you easily format your screenplay so you can focus on the essential elements -characters, dialogue, and action.
• Features for academic and nonfiction writers. If you're creating a well-researched nonfiction book, thesis, or detailed report you have to make sure you have features such as footnotes, references, and a bibliography correctly formatted. Scrivener provides templates for writing in styles such as APA and MLA so you can focus on your writing.
• Helps you set goals and track your progress. Time is always a factor for writers. Scrivener helps you set goals and track your progress every step of the way.
• Tools for exporting and publishing. Scrivener integrates with many formats so you can export to Microsoft Word, Open Office, RTF Final Draft (for screenplays), PDF and more.

Unlike many more specialized writing products, Scrivener is designed to take you from your first draft to finished product, covering all of the steps in between. Writers of all styles and genres can choose among many tools to guide them throughout the process. Now let's look in more detail at some of the leading features.

Editing Tools

If you're serious about writing you can't really separate writing from editing. Your ability to make changes, additions, and revisions really determine the quality of the final product. While software such as Word, Open Office, and even the most basic text editor or word processing tool gives you editing capabilities, Scrivener goes much further.

• Speech Feature (so far only for Mac) – One of the challenges of writing is that you don't always know how dialogue and other passages sound. With the speech feature, you can literally hear how your writing sounds. This helps you catch errors as well as clunky sentences.
• Track Word Frequency – When you write long documents it's easy to lose track of the words you use. The Text Statistics feature shows you how often words appear in your manuscript. If you catch yourself overusing certain words you can make substitutes.
• Color Coding – Color coding lets you label characters, points of view, topics, or anything that you need. You can color code icons such as flags or other labels to identify important features. For example, you might use different colors for different characters in a novel or screenplay.
• Split Screen – One important task you can't perform with software such as Word is viewing your work in a split-screen format. Scrivener lets you choose between vertical or horizontal screen split and switch screens around as you wish. Why would you want to do this? Suppose you're writing a complex novel with many characters that jumps back and forth in time. You can use a split-screen to view an earlier chapter dealing with a certain character/setting/time period while writing a current one to remind you of what was going on. Similarly, you can do this with nonfiction if you refer back to a topic from an earlier section.

What's New in Scrivener 3?

If you're using an earlier version of Scrivener you may be wondering if it's worthwhile to upgrade to version 3. At this point, this is only an option for OS X, though Literature and Latte promises that the Windows upgrade is coming soon.

• Improved User Interface – Some users have complained that Scrivener isn't as user-friendly as it could be. The creators have listened and made some notable adjustments. The Quick Search tool makes it easier to find documents.
• Bookmarking – One of the most useful new features is Bookmarks, which replaces the old Project Notes and References & Favorites to give users easy access to frequently used documents. You have the ability to bookmark items anywhere on your computer or online not only those you've saved in Scrivener.
• Tracking – New progress bars for drafts and sessions makes it easier to track your progress. There's also Writing Statistics, which lets you find out if you're meeting your daily or hourly word count. You can also track other metrics such as paragraph length and word frequency.
• Updated Compile Tool – This feature lets you combine multiple sections into a single document. This has many uses such as combining the best sections of several drafts. You can also use it to compile difference scenes in a novel or screenplay. The new Compiler is both more flexible and easier to use.
• Easier Formatting – Using Styles, you can more quickly change features such as fonts, headings, block text, and titles.
• Metadata – This feature lets you add dates, lists, checkboxes, and other data to help you keep track of important issues. If you're writing a section for a report, for example, you might add a checkbox such as 'Add Footnotes' or 'Explain this character's backstory' for your novel.
• EPub Compatibility – Simplifies self-publishing as you can export documents into Kindle EPub3 format.

When you first download the software, you'll want to spend some time consulting the very thorough video tutorials. This is quite substantial so, unless you're very ambitious, you probably won't want to tackle it all in one sitting.

The best way to start using Scrivener, once you've browsed around a little and studied the tutorial, is to actually start writing. Then, if you encounter difficulties, you can watch a tutorial on that topic. The following are some of the steps and features that can help elevate your writing.

Choose a Template

Unless you're only writing for yourself, you need to create documents in a specific format. In some cases, such as submitting an academic paper or screenplay, the wrong format will instantly disqualify your work no matter how good the writing is. Scrivener gives you many options for templates.

The template you choose will depend on what kind of document you're creating such as an article, short story, novel, blog, term paper, or screenplay. If you're writing a script, you can also choose more specialized templates for genres such as stage plays, documentaries, comic books, and even BBC radio and TV format. When you start a project, remember to give it a relevant and memorable file name so you don't lose track of it.

Customize Settings

There are many customizable components in Scrivener. Among the most important are editor settings. In the Editor, you can set your preferences for elements such as hide/show ruler or format bar or turn on Page View. You can also set up Full-Screen mode, which makes your document the whole screen and blocks out the rest of your desktop.

If you want to block out distractions as much as possible, choose Composition Mode, which always displays what you're typing in the center of the screen. Most likely, you'll want to experiment with different settings to find the ones that you prefer.

Folders and Binders

Folders in Scrivener perform a similar function to folders in other software programs. You use them to store important information such as a list of your characters, topics for your book, or anything that you need. All of these folders for any project combine to form a binder.

Just like a traditional binder, the Binder in Scrivener stores all the folders you create for any project. Depending on the nature of your document, a binder might consist of book chapters, movie scenes, or topics for a report.

Using Scrivener For Research

Research plays a big role in challenging writing projects such as novels, nonfiction books, academic works, and technical articles. When you use a traditional tool such as Word for writing, you usually have to keep the research separate from the main document. This isn't the case with Scrivener. We've already mentioned how projects are made up of folders and binders. Your research will be included in a binder, making it easy to access.

The Corkboard view is especially useful for research. It shows you, at a glance, what you've gathered and what you may still need to do. You can use this index card format to show you any type of material, from scientific formulae to the names of characters in your novel. Another useful research tool is the Split Screen view. One way to use this is to have your document on one side of the screen and your research on the other. Once again, you can display the two screens either horizontally or vertically.

Still another way Scrivener helps with research is the new Bookmark feature, which gives you easy access to content that's elsewhere on your computer or on the web. Thus, while working on your manuscript you can bring up a relevant website or file on your computer that has the information you need.

Compiling

As mentioned, Compiling is one of Scrivener's more challenging aspects that's been updated in the latest version. The Compiler lets you combine parts of your manuscript that may be formatted differently such as the title page, preface, table of contents, and chapters of a book.

One of the most efficient compiling tools is Collections. You create Collections using any criteria you want. This allows you to reorder material in your manuscript by dropping and dragging folders into a new Collection. For example, suppose you're writing a book or long article and decide you want to put everything related to a certain topic, which could be 'European travel,' 'Nutrition,' 'SEO Tips,' '19th Century Art' or anything else together into a new section. You create a Collection out of this material and compile it the way you want.

Corkboard

The Corkboard is an outlining tool that performs a similar function as a standard cork or bulletin board. Corkboard view lets you see all of your documents as note or index cards. This is a powerful visual tool that gives you a broad perspective on your document and may suggest changes you want to make such as adding, deleting, or rearranging sections.

For example, you may have two notecards, each representing a chapter in your book. You may decide that you need another chapter in between to clarify the story. You can then add another notecard to your Corkboard. This feature is also good for helping you decide where to put different sections or chapters. Looking at notecards, you might decide to reverse the order of two sections for clarity. The Corkboard is a visual tool, so it helps that you can customize it. You can adjust the size and appearance of notecards to your preference.

Scrivener Pros and Cons

As valuable as Scrivener is, every software has its drawbacks. Let's look at the leading pros and cons of Scrivener. Some of these, of course, are subjective and your own experience will depend on your needs and preferences.

Pros

• Comprehensive writing software guides you for virtually any type of writing project. Once you have Scrivener, you won't need separate programs for screenwriting, academic writing, or blogging.
• Reasonable, one-time fee is cheaper than many competing products. There's also a free trial.
• Many features are highly customizable.

Cons

Manuscripts 1 2 7 – Writing Tool For Complex Documents Pdf

• Not compatible with all operating systems. You need Windows 7 or later or Mac X. As of now, Scrivener 3 for Windows is not yet available.
• Doesn't have a dedicated dictionary or thesaurus. There is a spelling and grammar checker but these are fairly basic. However, you can now find many resources for these for free online (e.g. Thesaurus.com and the free version of Grammarly, the Hemingway app, etc.).
• Learning curve. You need to learn the terminology (e.g. folders, binders, compiling, etc.) and put in some time to be able to benefit from the software.

Operating Systems and Costs

Scrivener 3 is currently available for Mac OS. As of this writing, the Windows version of this update is not yet ready (but it should be released any day as it was promised in early 2018). However, if you buy the current version for Windows, you'll be able to get a free update when Version 3 for Windows is released.

Scrivener offers a 30-day free trial to let you explore the features and find out if it's right for you. The full version for Windows or Mac OS costs $45. There's an educational license for students and academics for $38.25. You can buy a bundled package (Windows + Mac OS) for $75. The iOS app is $19.99. If you're an existing Scrivener 1 user for Windows or If you're a Mac user with an older version you can upgrade to Version 3 for $25.

Considering everything that you can do with this software and comparing it to the competition, Scrivener provides solid value. As noted, several spelling/grammar checkers are more expensive. Final Draft, the leading screenwriting software for Mac costs $299. Another popular tool for fiction writers, Writer's Blocks, charges $149. Considering that none of these tools offers nearly the number of features as Scrivener does, you can appreciate that the one-time fee of $45 is a great value.

Why Use Scrivener?

Some writers why they need a product like Scrivener when they can edit with Word or Open Office and perhaps use an additional tool such as Grammarly for spelling and grammar. The fact is, there aren't many comprehensive writing products on the market. Scrivener does far more than a word processor or spelling/grammar checker (it's also worth noting that the paid version of Grammarly is significantly more expensive than Scrivener).

Scrivener helps you with every stage of the writing process including research, editing, organization, formatting, and exporting. If you're like many users, you might feel a bit overwhelmed when you first start using Scrivener. In fact, there are even courses dedicated to making Scrivener easier to use. Fortunately, the program is getting more user-friendly with each update. Nonetheless, with so many features that there's definitely a learning curve.

Scrivener is the kind of tool that becomes more valuable the more you use it. At first, the time it takes to figure everything out negates some of the efficiency. As you learn how to do things like use bookmarks, use folder, look up word alternatives, view split screens, and lots more, you'll start to notice how the product improves your writing.

The main caveat for using Scrivener is that you do have to put in the effort to learn it. Otherwise, you risk being one of the many buyers who get frustrated and leave it on their computer or phone unused. If you do take the time to learn it, however, you'll soon wonder how you survived so long without it!
