Another thing you may want to add to your document, is a cover page. So, to do that, go to the Insert menu, select Cover Page, and then you have some built-in options that you can use straight away, and there's quite a few of these. So, if you want to just use one of these built-in options, they're super useful, just click on the one you like, and you will have a series of text boxes that you can then fill in. Now, I'd already done this earlier on, so one of the great things is it actually remembers the text that you've used previously. So why is that useful? Well, the reason that's useful is because if you decide you don't like that layout for some reason, you can change the cover page to another version. So maybe I want to pick this one on the left-hand side, this Austin style, okay? And it'll just rearrange the text on the screen. Okay, obviously that's not working so well, 'cause that box there's a little bit too narrow for the words, but you, kind of, get the picture. As I move around these different options, it shows you what it would look like. Now, some of the options will have additional fields that you may need to fill in, whereas others will have fewer fields. But you can mess around with that as much as you want to. Now, you probably don't wanna have a header on there, so we'll delete that. (keyboard clicking) There we go, that's better. But, that's how you add a cover page. Now, what we'll do in the next video, is show you how to create your own custom cover page as well. I'm gonna go back to this option here for now. Okay.
