Practice Document: Macbeth Essay

Instructions

This example document doesn’t have headings and is in the wrong format per UTA standards.

  1. Download the example essay.
  2. Download the template for short documents.
  3. Reformat the essay on the template. Add headings and use best practices.

Reminders

Remember to strip out formatting from the source document by converting the text to plain text before pasting it into the template. (If you do not do this, you will have a mix of fonts in the Styles pane and that makes it more confusing.)

Remember to set the document title under File > Properties to match the heading 1.

Shortcuts

Here’s an outline for the headings to get you started:

(H1) Title (remember the document title, too!)
(H2) Introduction
(H2) Lineage
