How to Format a Research Paper in MS Word This information is designed to support and supplement the District 219 Research Paper Manual, by showing how to use the computer to set up a paper to the teacher's specifications. The 'how to' information here is for Word '97 for the PC. However, the concepts apply to other versions of Word, as well as for other types of programs such as AppleWorks or Word for the Mac. These examples have basis in MLA format. While some of the details for setting up research papers in pure MLA format, APA format, or Chicago Style format may differ, the processes for directing the computer remain the same. Follow your teacher's preferences for the individual style elements of the paper.
