More Formatting:
Besides the toolbars, Word provides a great deal of ways to customize and format your text and documents.

Paragraph Spacing:
To access the Paragraph formatting options, navigate to the menu bar, and select “Format” >> “Paragraph,” or right-click within a paragraph.

A window will appear with options for modifying spacing and indenting. Here, you can choose to make the text in your document single or double spaced, as well as edit the margins for the document.

Headers/Footers:
Headers and footers are important aspects of a Word document if you wish to include information such as page numbers and headings on every page. To access the header and footer options, go to the menu bar and select “View” >> “Header and Footer."

A dotted-line box called "Header" will automatically appear, as well as a sub-menu for formatting header and footer properties. The cursor will already be placed in the Header box. If you scroll down on your current page opened in Word, you will see a dotted-line box called "Footer." To add text in the Header or the Footer, simply click the cursor inside either one of the boxes, and type the text you want.

To add page numbers to your document, click your cursor inside of the footer box. Then, click on the icon shaped like a sheet of paper with a "#" inside. The page number will then be inserted and applied to all of the pages in your document.

Inserting an Image:
In Word, it's possible to add clipart or other images to a document. Click the cursor in your document where you wish to place an image. Then go to the menu bar and select “Insert” >> “Picture.”
