Tutorial
Import a Schedule of Events

The schedule of events for the summer was written in Microsoft® Word. It goes in the text block in the middle of the back page.

  1. Select an insertion point in the text block below "Events:" by clicking in it with the I-beam pointer.

  2. Choose Import Text from the File menu and double-click Summer Events in the Tutorial Folder. The schedule of events appears in the text block. When the schedule was created in Word, a tab character was typed after each date and time. But since there are no tab stops set for the text in the text block, Sahafi simply inserts the preset width for a tab character: 1 em. The stylesheet for the schedule of events is among those you imported from the Bulletin Templates document.

  3. Choose Select All from the Edit menu.

  4. Choose Apply Style from the Edit menu and then choose Events Text from the submenu of stylesheets that appears. The Events Text stylesheet is applied to the text-10/12 Helvetica, condensed 85%, with 6 points of extra space between paragraphs, and tab stops that align with the left edges of the second and third columns in the grid (at 5 picas, 7 points and at 11 picas, 2 points from the left margin). Text after the second tab wraps within a 15 pica, 10 point measure until the Return character at the end of each paragraph.

  5. Scroll the page so the bottom of the text block is visible in the document window.
