Using Templates from Microsoft Office OnlineMicrosoft has made available a wide range of additional templates on its Web site, providing prewritten documents in the following categories:
To create a file based on one of these templates, choose File, New; then click Templates Home Page. TIP Or, click File, New; click On My Computer, and click the Templates on Office Online button.

Browse to the category and subcategory you want; then click on the template you want to install. Internet Explorer will display an image of a sample document built with the template (see Figure 11.2). To open a new file based on this template, click Download Now. Word displays a new document based on the template. Figure 11.2. Click Download Now to open a file based on the online template you've chosen.
