NLR Report Template

Delete these instructions when you are done with them.

Purpose of the Template

The NLR report template helps authors write technical and subcontract reports using NLR’s styles.

Using the Template

Templates offer styles with predetermined formatting for titles, headings, captions, bullets, lists, spacing, and more. To use the template, highlight and type over sections of content. To add more content, such as headings and body text, copy and paste the items from one section to another.

Home Tab

The Home tab includes the Font group with options to specify font and font size. The Styles group includes Microsoft’s preset styles and NLR’s styles. Other buttons in the Home tab control bolding, italics, and underlining, as well as text alignment, lists, indenting, colors, and highlighting.

Styles Panel

To view NLR’s styles, open the Styles panel:

Home tab Styles group dropdown arrow in the lower-right corner.

A panel opens with a list of styles. The NLR styles start with “NLR_.” You can also open the panel with this shortcut: Alt + Ctrl + Shift + S.

To apply NLR’s styles, highlight content to format and click a style in the Styles panel.
