Ask Gutenberg or Plantin. Google it.\nToo long to explain. Too technical.

Headline:  sometimes bold, sometimes in calligraphy script, e.g. "The San Jose Mercury News"\n\nStories triaged according to perceived importance and content--e.g., before all sorts of news broke out about E. coli infections from beef, the initial stories may have been on the front page of the local section where the outbreak occurred.  Now, these stories can end up on Page One, above the fold.\n\n"Page One, above the fold":  Stories on page 1 above the fold are generally more salient/important/relevant than stories on the same page below the fold.  These stories are what a potential newspaper buyer sees when looking at a newspaper vending machine or pile of papers for sale.\n\nObituaries:  can be an interesting glimpse of times gone by in your area, especially if the person who passed away was quite old and quite active in local politics or social life.

It's called a bullet. Try webdings in the font selection. Some programs can do it automatically in the "page setup". Check out your toolbar for help.

It's a witty way of summarizing the body of your paper in a single sentence conclusion.  An example I found off the net was "poverty is not a great issue, if everyone is poor."

Your local library should have a periodical section, where you could easily look up the correct edition of the newspaper in question.\n\nAlso, try searching for newspaper's website.

I think what's written is the important thing, not some silly picture on the side.\n\nIf you want to put a picture, go ahead.  I couldn't be bothered.

It means write in properly constructed sentences and paragraphs. Don't set out your answer as a series of bullet points.

When they quote something word for word and include typos or misspellings, they put (sic) in to let you know that the person(s) they are quoting are dumbazzes, and not the newspaper itself.\n\nEDIT: Look at that! They ^^^ just copy and pasted a blah blah blah answer from dictionary.com. I gave you a REAL answer.\n\nYou're welcome!

Use quotation marks to enclose the titles of poems, short stories, songs, reports, articles, and chapeters of books.\n\nPoem   "Fame"\nShort Story    "Hail and Farwell"\nSong           "Everything is Coming up Roses"\n\nUnderline titles of books, plays, magazines, newspapers, television series, works of art, musicial compositions, epic poems, and motion pictures. Titles that are underlined are in italics.\n\nBook               Max Malone, Superstar\nMagazine           People\nTelevision Series  Entertainment Tonight\nMotion Picture     King Kong\n\nNote**  these do not appear as they should in the post

sometimes the printers have some limitations, let's say settings, which don't fit with the settings you have chosen for the page/sheet of the *.doc or *.xls. for example you set a 1.5 cm left of the page, while the printer has a 2.5 cm on the left of the page to print. the result is that on print preview or on printing you will lose a 1 cm narrow column of the text you typed. while the printer settings are very difficult to be tricked, the most common way is to change the settings of the page you work. observe exactly what the differences are (between page and print preview) and...you know the rest: file/page setup and trim everything there to be the same!
