Full Screen Word Document

  • Often you may wish to display a Word document in full screen. This is particularly useful for presentations, primarily because the Word ribbon does occupy quite a bit of space on a projector that only runs at lower resolutions. It is quite easy to add a button to toggle full screen view into Word’s Quick Access Toolbar. Open Word then click the small triangle to the right of the Quick Access Toolbar (by default, the toolbar has a Save, Undo and Redo icon) and then select “More Commands…”. In the “Choose commands from” drop-down box, select “All Commands”. Locate “Toggle Full Screen View” in the list below, select it and press the “Add > >” button. Click OK to save and close. The Toggle Full Screen view button will now appear in the Quick Access Toolbar.

Leave a Comment
Hi there. If this is the first time you are posting a comment it will not appear immediately, but needs to be approved. This is necessary in order to combat comment spam. However, once you have submitted a comment (which is subsequently approved) you do not need to go through this process again - the site remembers who you are and auto-approves your comments. Nifty eh? Anyway, sorry about the inconvenience that this may cause for your first comment post.
