Use Microsoft Word to create a business letter from your company, AAMCO Dental
Supplies, to a customer. The teacher will tell you where the necessary files are located.
The file containing the body of the letter, which is provided for you, should be modified
according to the given directions. Follow the instructions below exactly and do not make
any additional formatting changes. Complete the steps in the order presented.
Proofread your work carefully.
1. Open the Microsoft Word file containing the body of the letter. Save the Word file
as “Business Letter.doc” to the Desktop.
2. Set the margins to 2 inches on the top, 1 inch on the bottom, and 1 inch on each
side.
3. Insert the picture from the file, “AAMCO Letterhead.jpg”, in the header. Do not
resize the image.
4. This is a business letter from you, written on today’s date.
5. You are sending the letter to: Dr. John T. Smith, DDS, Red Hill Health Center,
which is located at 915 Sir Francis Drake Boulevard in San Anselmo, California.
The zip code is 94960.
6. Use Arial font, 12-point size.
7. Use block style (including the correct number of blank lines between the parts of
the letter).
8. Use left justification for the body of the letter.
9. Use a greeting and closing that is appropriate for a business letter, with
appropriate punctuation.
10. Insert the picture from the file, “Tooth.jpg”, in the second and third paragraphs,
justified with the right margin. Text wrap the image using the Tight setting. This
will move the paragraphs over to the left. Do not resize the image.
11. Recreate the table below, using tabs or table options, between the third and
fourth paragraphs. Size the table so that the left and right borders are 1/2 inch in
from the margins. Left justify, or use left tabs for, columns containing text; right
