Document Templates and Style Sheets

Word 5.5 for DOS or OS/2

You can define character and paragraph formats in a style sheet (*.dfv). They are identified via the "hot key", a two character key, some of them via predefined descriptions such as "Outline 1".

Word 2.0

In the document template (*.dot), you can define format templates for paragraph formats. Unlike in Word 5.5, their names can be longer than two characters.

Word 6.0 and Higher

In addition to the features in 2.0, you can now define format templates for character formats.
