Main Ideas / Lesson

  • The video teaches how to create a neat letterhead (kop surat) in Microsoft Word.
  • Key concept: put the letterhead into the Header so it automatically appears on every new page (no need to recreate it).
  • The process is built using:
    • Page Setup (paper size and margins)
    • Styles (to simplify formatting)
    • A table for layout (logo + letter text + underline)
    • Text styling (bold, font sizes)
    • Borders / underline to create the line under the header
    • Save the document

Method / Step-by-Step Instructions (Detailed)

1) Start / Preparation

  1. Go to Layout.
  2. Set Paper Size to A4 (or adjust as needed).
  3. Set Margins to Normal (or modify to your preference).
  4. In HomeStyles, choose No Spacing to make formatting easier.

2) Enter the Header (so the letterhead repeats on all pages)

  • Double-click the top area of the document to open the Header section.
  • Create the letterhead design inside the header.

3) Create the Header Layout Using a Table

  1. Go to InsertTable.
  2. Insert a table sized 2 rows × 1 column (as indicated in the subtitles: “2 times” / “2 * 1”).
  3. Resize the table:
    • Move your cursor to the table boundary until the resize icon appears.
    • Click and drag to adjust size.
  4. Adjust width/placement by dragging (use the visual guidance shown in the subtitles).

4) Add the Logo

  1. Click InsertPicture.
  2. Select the logo file (example: “Kendikb logo”).
  3. If the logo is too large, resize it:
    • Adjust Width to about 4 cm (subtitles mention ~3.99, then treated as ~4).

5) Enter Letterhead Text (Company / Agency Details)

Fill in the relevant fields (examples shown in the subtitles), such as:

  • Government/Agency line (example shown): “Pemerintah Daerah … Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta”
  • Dinas Pendidikan
  • SMA Negeri 25
  • Address (example): “Jalan Gajah Mungkur” + “No. 123”
  • Phone number (example): “0111 3 4 98765”
  • Website (example): “www.sman25yk.ac.id” (auto turns blue)
  • Email (example): “info@sman25yk.ac.id”
  • City (example): “Kota Yogyakarta”

After entering, select the text for formatting.

6) Align and Format the Text

  1. When the table tools area appears, go to Layout.
  2. Choose Align Center to center the content horizontally.
  3. Apply emphasis and sizing:
    • Use Bold for relevant top lines (HomeBold).
    • Set font sizes (as shown in the subtitles):
      • Font size 20 for the bold top line
      • Font size 14 for the other lines (bold them as needed)

7) Add Underline / Bottom Border

  1. Remove the extra box area by selecting the described table cell/area.
  2. Go to Design (table tools) → Borders.
  3. Choose No Border first to clear borders.
  4. Then create the underline:
    • Under Border style, choose a line style.
    • Set line width (examples: 3 or 2).
    • Select Bottom border to place the line under the header.

8) Finish and Verify

  • Double-click in the middle area to exit header editing; the letterhead is complete.
  • Test pagination:
    • Add a new page / next page (layout/break).
    • Confirm the letterhead automatically appears on the next page.

9) Saving

  • Save via FileSave or Save As (subtitles also mention shortcut usage such as Ctrl).
