This template contains pre-settings for the essential features of APA format: margins, indentations, font, line spacing, and widow/orphan control, as explained in The APA Manual (pp. 29-67). To use this template, select "File--Save As" and save the template under a new name. Then use type-over insertions to replace the header, information block, and title. Finally, replace the text in the body of the template by using type-over insertions, or delete the body text in blocks. (Hint: Leave the sample block quotation in place to preserve its paragraph indentation as a model. Use type-over insertions in the references to preserve the hanging indentations.) Here, then, is a sample block quotation:

A quotation that occupies forty words or more should be indented five spaces from the left margin. In a student paper, a block quotation may be single or double spaced, without quotation marks at the beginning and end of the quoted material. Its right margin should be set at 1". Its parenthetical citation should be placed after the block's last item of punctuation. (Smith, 1988, p. 16)

I suggest printing this template to make sure that your printer is properly configured to produce an APA page. It should produce no more than 27 lines per page, plus the header. The text block should be surrounded by 1" margins on all four sides.

Appendix

In general, an appendix is appropriate for materials that are relatively brief and that are easily presented in printed format. If your manuscript has only one appendix, label it Appendix; if your manuscript has more than one appendix, label each one with a capital letter (Appendix A, Appendix B, etc.) in the order in which it is mentioned in the main text. Each appendix must have a title. For more details refer to the APA Publication Manual (sec. 2.14).
