Word has several features that help you make your documents look beautiful and more attractive. You can change your word document’s appearance using different 3D models, animations, charts, colors, graphs, fonts, page layout, shapes, styles, and much more. When you want to write, edit or format assignments, notes or reports, the best platform to use is word. One outstanding feature you can use to make your work more attractive is inserting a word cover page.
A word cover page is the highlight of your document. This page contains the title of your work and other important information such as your name and, in some cases, the institution logo or pictures. In addition, a cover page enables you to make your word document more official and professional. You can add an image as your cover page background to make it colorful. Word also lets you modify the existing cover page templates to suit your document. If you don’t like the pre-designed templates, you can create your own cover page. And if you also realize that you don’t need a cover page, word has functions you can use to remove the page.
