Exam overview
About the Exam 77-887: Word 2010 Expert Exam
Work through decisions about how Word structures pages and controls content flow. Booklet layout uses page setup choices that arrange pages for folding, while picture text-wrapping settings determine whether paragraphs can sit beside an image. Sections and page-number formats help manage different headers and numbering sequences across a document. Other practical tasks include inserting a page break to control pagination, refreshing a generated table of contents after edits, and entering chart data in the associated worksheet. The question set also touches file portability through font embedding, document export to PDF, and nonbreaking characters that keep a word intact at a line ending. These skills are useful when revising reports, preparing documents for print or distribution, and maintaining navigation and layout after content changes.
Sample Practice Questions
Review a selection from this exam's published US Practice Tests practice bank.
You are preparing a document for printing as a booklet, with pages arranged for folding. Which page setup option is intended for this layout?
Show answer
Correct answer: AThe Book fold setting arranges pages for booklet printing, placing pages in an order suitable for folding sheets and binding them.
A page contains an image, and you want surrounding paragraphs to flow beside it rather than only above and below it. Which picture setting controls this behavior?
Show answer
Correct answer: AWrap Text controls how text flows around an image, with choices such as Square and Tight. Cropping changes which parts of the image are visible instead.
When inserting a chart in Word 2010, which action opens a worksheet where you can enter or edit the chart's data?
Show answer
Correct answer: BSelecting a chart and choosing Edit Data opens the associated data worksheet for entering or changing values. The other actions do not edit chart data.
A document will be opened on computers that may not have the fonts used in it. Which option helps preserve the appearance by storing font data in the document?
Show answer
Correct answer: AEmbedding fonts can include font data in the document so its appearance is more consistent on systems where those fonts are not installed, subject to font-embedding permissions and settings.
You want different headers in the first page of a report and its remaining pages. Which setting supports this layout?
Show answer
Correct answer: BThe Different First Page option separates the first-page header and footer from those used on subsequent pages in the section.
In Word 2010, which command can save the current document as a PDF file?
Show answer
Correct answer: AWord 2010 supports saving or publishing a document as a PDF by selecting PDF as the output file type in the save or publish workflow. The other commands serve unrelated purposes.
A document's page numbers should start at 1 on a later page rather than continue from the pages before it. Which setting in the page-number format controls this?
Show answer
Correct answer: BThe Start at setting specifies the first number in a section's page-number sequence. Continue from previous section carries on the prior section's numbering instead.

Preparation tips
- In Word 2010, compare page setup options for booklet printing and note how section breaks differ from page breaks when controlling headers and numbering.
- Practice changing picture text wrapping so paragraphs flow beside an image, and check how the selected layout affects surrounding text.
- Update a table of contents after editing headings, and test page-number formatting when numbering must restart in a later section.
- Insert a chart and edit its worksheet data; then save a copy as PDF and review font-embedding options for document portability.
- Use a nonbreaking hyphen or space where appropriate to keep a word or phrase together at a line ending.
