How to Make a Newsletter in Word

1. Type the heading for your newsletter; for example, Garden Club Newsletter, Winter Issue. Make the heading span across all columns; hit 'Enter' twice after entering your heading, then click on 'Page Layout' on the top menu bar. Click on the down arrow next to Breaks and select 'Continuous.' This will start your columns below the heading.
2. Locate the Columns icon, while in the Page Layout tab, then click on the down arrow and select the number of columns you want in your newsletter. To add a line in between your columns, click on the down arrow below the Columns icon and select 'More Columns.' At the pop-up window, click the box next to Line Between Preview.
3. Enter the text for your articles or cut and paste your content from another document. When you reach the end of the first column, Word will automatically wrap the text to the top of the next column.
4. Add photos or graphics by clicking on the 'Insert' tab then on the 'Picture' icon and browse your desktop to locate and select the image you want to add. Click the 'Insert' button. To resize the image in your newsletter, select it and move your cursor over a corner of the image. When the diagonal arrow appears, hold down your left mouse button and drag to reduce or enlarge.
5. Add appeal to your newsletter by adding background color and a border. In the Page Layout tab, click on the 'Page Color' icon and select a background color. To add a border, click on the 'Page Borders' icon and select the 'Page Border' tab, then select the border you want.
