How to Create an Invoice in Lotus Word Pro

Did you know that you can create invoices quickly and easy in Lotus Word Pro. Word Pro has ready made invoice templates. They have three different style templates to choose from. In this tutorial I will show you how to create invoices in Lotus Word Pro.

Open your Lotus Word Pro program and let it load. When the New Document window comes up, click the Create from any SmartMaster tab. Then click the Browse for more Files button. Now you will see a list of ready made templates in the top box. Browse through that list and find the Form template. Click on the Form template. Then below that you will see three choices. Choose the invoice style that you want. Then click the OK button. Now the invoice template will load in your Lotus Word Pro.

Type in the information that you need in the fields. You can change the color of the text, the style of the text, and the size of the text by highlighting it and use the buttons at the bottom of the screen.

If you used invoice3 you can change the color of the cells. Right click on the cell that you want to change. Then click Cell Properties from the menu. When the Properties window comes up, drop the background box down and select your color.

You can add your logo or a graphic to the invoice too. Click on the invoice where you want to add the logo or graphic. Then go to the top of your window and click File > Import Picture. When the box pops up, locate the graphic or logo that you want to use and click the Open button.

You may need to insert more rows into your invoice. Right click on one of the rows and click Insert Row on the menu. You may also need to delete a row. Right click on the row that you want to delete and click Delete from the menu. To add a column, right click where you want to add it and click Insert Column from the menu.

Once you have the invoice the way you want it, you can print it. Go to the top of your Word Pro window and click File > Print. Enter the number of copies that you want to print and click the Print button.

That's how easy it is to create an invoice. Lotus Word Pro is packed full of great ready made templates that you can use. I truly enjoy Lotus Word Pro.
