  10. Writing a Personal Business Letter • Many times letters written from companies are printed on letterhead. • Letterhead is paper preprinted with company logo and contact information. • Individuals use personal business letters since most don’t have their own letterhead. • In a block style letter, all items line up at the left margin. Chapter 4

  11. Writing a Personal Business Letter (continued) • In a modified-block style letter, the paragraphs are indented, and the date and the closing block start at the center. • Open punctuation does not have any punctuation after the salutation or the closing. • Mixed punctuation has a colon after the salutation and a comma after the closing. Chapter 4

  12. Formatting the Body of the Letter • The body of the letter is the major part that includes the message. • Text word wraps at the end of the lines. • Do not indent any paragraphs. Chapter 4

  13. Formatting the Closing of the Letter • The closing ends the letter. • The most common closing is “Sincerely.” • The return address is the address of the person sending the letter. • Press Enter four times after the closing to allow the sender to sign his/her name. Chapter 4

  14. Changing the Margins • The margins are the distance between the text and the edges of the paper. • Default margins are 1-inch on all four sides (top, bottom, left, and right). • Microsoft Word has a variety of margin settings. Chapter 4

  15. Viewing the Document with Print Preview • Print preview allows you to see what the document will look like when it is printed. • A letter should have approximately the same amount of white space above and below the letter. • Close the Print Preview to return to the document. Chapter 4

  16. Finishing Steps • Spell check the document. • Do not add a header since your name already appears at the bottom. • Print the letter. • Using a blue or black pen, sign your name below the word "Sincerely." Chapter 4

  17. Keying the Report • Copying someone else’s words and claiming them to be your own is plagiarism. • The title is typed in all capital letters. • Formatted with 1-inch margins. • Report is double-spaced. • The first line of the paragraphs is indented. Chapter 4

  18. Double-Spacing the Report • Select all text. • Click the Line Spacing button on the Home Ribbon. • Choose 2.0 for double spacing. • Holding Ctrl and pressing the number 2 will also double space. Chapter 4
