The keyboard shortcut Ctrl + Shift + Enter inserts a column break. This forces all subsequent text to move to the beginning of the next column, which is useful for balancing the layout of text across columns on a page.

Which of the following is used to create newspaper-style columns?
To format text into newspaper-style columns where text flows from the bottom of one column to the top of the next, you use the Columns feature. This is located on the "Page Layout" (or "Layout") tab of the ribbon.
Vertical alignment determines how the content is positioned between the top and bottom margins of a page (e.g., top, center, justified). This page-level setting is found on the "Layout" tab within the "Page Setup" dialog box.

Which option is not available in Insert Table Autofit behavior?
When inserting a table in Word, the AutoFit options allow you to control column behavior. You can set a fixed width, have columns automatically resize to fit their content, or have the table expand to fit the width of the page (window). "AutoFit to Column" is not a standard option.

How many columns can you insert in a Word document at maximum?
In older versions of Microsoft Word (such as Word 97-2003), the maximum number of newspaper-style columns that could be created on a single page was 45. Newer versions have increased this limit to 63.
To make text appear hollow, you need to use the "Outline" font effect. This can be found in the Font dialog box or in the Text Effects options. It removes the fill color from the characters, leaving only the border or outline visible.

Which formatting type makes both margins of a block of text equally straight?
Justified alignment (or "Justify") is a paragraph format where Word adjusts the spacing between words so that the text lines up perfectly straight along both the left and right margins. This creates a clean, block-like appearance, common in newspapers and books.

When we don't want a single line of a paragraph to be left on another page, we turn on:
"Widow/Orphan control" is a paragraph formatting option that prevents this situation. A "widow" is the last line of a paragraph left by itself at the top of a new page, and an "orphan" is the first line of a paragraph left by itself at the bottom of a page. This feature keeps at least two lines of a paragraph together.

How would you make an item in a multi-level list change level?
When working with a multilevel (outline) list in Word, the easiest way to change an item's level is with the keyboard. Pressing the Tab key will demote the item (e.g., from level 1 to 2), and pressing Shift + Tab will promote it (e.g., from level 2 to 1). The Indent/Outdent buttons also work.

Uppercase on the Change Case dialog box and All Caps on the Fonts dialog box both convert selected text into capital letters. What's the difference between the two?
"Change Case > UPPERCASE" actually replaces the lowercase characters with their uppercase equivalents. This is a permanent edit. The "All Caps" option in the Font dialog box, however, is a formatting effect. It displays the text as capitals but doesn't change the underlying characters, meaning you can simply uncheck the box to revert to the original case.
