TIPS GOOGLE DOCS DOCUMENTS:

Procuring in Google Docs more efficiently

Searches can be refined if you use special commands, such as 'type:spreadsheet'

to return only results that are spreadsheets. For texts, document for slides,
presentation.

2. Explore the templates

Many people do not know that the Docs text and table processor offers hundreds
of templates (models), including some very sophisticated ones for working with taxes and
other specific purposes. To display these templates click the "Create New..." button on
homepage and select "From template..." in the menu.

3. Automatically correct typing errors

If you frequently make the same typing mistakes, Google Docs can fix them.
this text automatically while the user writes it.

Click on the Tools menu and select Preferences. You will see a window with options.
text substitution, Type the word that you usually misspell in
Replace field, and the correction next to it in the field With. For example, the user can configure
the Docs to replace 'msa' with 'mas'.

4. Click and drag images to Docs

To insert an image or photo into a text document, just drag it from a folder.
computer for the document window.

5. Position the photos in the file

The user can adjust the position of the photos in the document, forcing the text to wrap around them.
image. By default, Google Docs inserts photos in a way that they move
this arrangement is known as inline positioning. To fix the image
on the page in such a way that the text surrounds it, first select the image and click on the link
"Fixed" that appears in its footer.

6. Quickly insert links

The most common way to insert a hyperlink in a text document is to click on Insert and
then in Link, or press Control+K. However, if you are using Google Chrome, there is
other options such as clicking and dragging a shortcut from the favorites bar or even from the menu of
favorites for the field "Point URL to which link?", which transforms the favorite immediately
in a link. It can also be dragged into the document itself, which creates a text with
hyperlink.

7. Use the (Favorite) markers to navigate through long documents

Within text documents, it is possible to set markers and create links that jump directly.
for certain points in the file. This can be useful when creating pages with indexes, for
example.

To insert a bookmark, click on the Insert menu and choose Favorites. Then, to create the link
for this marking, select the word or phrase that you want other users
click to jump to the marking and press Control+K. Check the Favorites option in
dialog box and finally select the marking that was created earlier.

8. Learn to deal with repeated text

Let's say you are a teacher who needs to constantly write the phrase 'needs to'
"more explanations" in the work of their students. To save time, open a document
of text in Docs and click on Tools / Preferences. In the window that appears, under the item
Automatic replacement, type under Replace needs more explanations
under Com. Click OK.

Back to your document type me, press space and the abbreviation should be automatically
replaced by the text you defined. If it doesn't work go back to Tools / Preferences
make sure the Auto-replace option is checked. Choose substitutions
short and try to use unique letter combinations so that Google Docs doesn't get confused.
word with a substitution.

Substitution preferences are universal, and once configured they will work in
any text document. One limitation is that Google Docs only allows replacements in
a line of text, then create a command to replace entire blocks, like a
signature is out of the question. At least for now.

9. Simulate a guided spell checker

In contrast to most text editors, Google Docs does not have a 'formal' process of
spelling correction: it is done automatically as you type. Whenever you see
a word underlined in red, you can right-click on it to
see possible corrections.
But for some people this is not as good as a traditional broker, who points out the
errors in sequence, one by one. To simulate this behavior, use two keyboard shortcuts:
Ctrl+; takes you to the next 'error', and Ctrl+[ goes back to the previous one.

10. Conquer more space

Google Docs wastes valuable screen space by surrounding the menu and toolbars.
with ample white space, which can be a problem if you are working on a
limited resolution screen, like a netbook. To redeem the issue click on View /
Compress controls (or press Ctrl+Shift+F).

Lembre-se que esta opção tem de ser definida para cada tipo de documento em separado.
You can compress the controls into a text document, for example, but your
Spreadsheets will still show the normal controls unless you repeat the process.

Above, the 'normal' controls in Google Docs. Below, the 'compact' version.

If you want even more space, try viewing the documents in 'full screen' (View/Full Screen)
They will occupy the entire window of the browser, and the menus and toolbars
They will remain hidden until you press Esc. It's a good option for those who already master the shortcuts.
Docs keyboard and does not need the menus and toolbars always visible. This option
it is not permanent, and you have to activate it every time you open a document.

To free up space, combine the 'full screen' mode of Docs with the Full Screen mode of
your favorite browser. In Firefox and Chrome just press F11. This way the browser will
take up the entire screen, the document will fill the entire browser, and you will have the maximum of
space for your text, with nothing else to distract you.

11. Turn off all notifications

You are collaborating on an online document but going crazy because of the
email notifications constants? Then you are not alone. Reacting to users who
expressed their frustration in various threads in the Google Docs discussion groups,
Google has created a feature that allows users to block notifications in specific documents.

Just open the document, click on the Comments button in the upper right corner of the screen and in
Notification settings. In the window that appears, check Do not send email notifications.
about this document for mime click OK. You can also choose to be notified
only when mentioned in a comment, or when someone responds to something about the
what you commented.

12. Open documents in the same tab or window

By default, Google Docs opens each of its documents in a new tab or window.
but you can change this behavior so that it occupies only one tab/window of
every time.

Click the button with the gear in the upper right corner of the main Google window.
Docs (which lists all your documents) and in the item Settings in the menu. On the screen.
Next, under the General tab, find the option Where items will be opened and select the item In
current window. Click on Save at the bottom of the page.

From now on, your documents will open in the same tab, except when you create one.

13. Find out who made a change

Google Docs allows you to see who made changes to any document
shared, with the level of detail you want. To start click on File/View
Histórico de Revisões. Uma barra aparecerá na lateral direita da tela, detalhando as mudanças
recent changes in your documents. Each person who edited the document appears on the list, with
a corresponding color.

History shows who modified a document, and when.

Changes made by different editors are highlighted with their respective colors. If you
If you want to see additional details, such as cell-by-cell reviews in a spreadsheet, click the button
Show more detailed reviews in the footer of the bar. To revert a document to a
previous version, find it in the history and click on Restore this revision under the name of
editor. If you want to see the revisions without the highlighted colors, uncheck the Show option.
changes in the footer of the sidebar. To exit the revision history without making any
change, click on X at the top of the sidebar.

14. Avoid problems with large images

In Google Docs, you can insert almost any image into a text document.
simply dragging it from the desktop to the document (as long as you are using a recent version
two browsers Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer or Safari). But there is a limit: it is not
possible to use images with more than 2000 pixels in width or height.

Google says this is a known issue and is working on a way to fix it.
Until then, the solution is to use an image editor.(How about an online one?) to resize to
image to something smaller. Just remember to save the resized image with a new one
name, so as not to overwrite the original.
