Here are most of the Commands that you will need to use.

Others will be Illustrated as you move through the Tutorial.

Many of the same commands are used in other programs.

Background Color

FPEXTutBackColor-1.jpg (20125 bytes)I have changed the Background Color to Blue in the illustration above.

I use Themes with FrontPage 98 to get a dark brown background.

If you use FrontPage Express, use a White or Silver Background Color.

To change the Background Color

Select Format -> Background

Click the Small Dart to get a Menu of Colors.

Opening Page with a Silver Background.

Adding Text

Add text just as you would with any program.

Use Ariel Rounded MT Bold as your Font.

Do NOT use a fancy font like Serpentine which may be groovy but difficult to read.

I always use BOLD text.

Format text using the Style Box which contains some preformatted options, or the Format Toolbar

These are located on the far-left side of the Format Toolbar.

We will Explore the Format Toolbar & work from Left to Right as we proceed through the Tutorial

Important Note
Toolbar Commands are also available via the Dropdown Menus from the Menu Bar which is just above the Format Toolbar.
