What do you mean by "Live Preview"?

Cindy,

In Word 2007 as you point to different Heading styles there is a "Live
Preview" of how the document would look with different fonts.

Thanks,

If I open a *.txt file in Word, then hover over a style in the Quick Styles
gallery in the Home tab on the Ribbon, I see the Live Preview for that style for
the current selection.

Hello Daisy -

Live Preview is a feature of the Word 2007 program, itself. It merely
enables you to see what certain effects will have on the document content
without actually having to apply the change.

Although you can open a text file in Word & use any of the program's
features you wish, the .txt file format doesn't support those effects,
features or formatting. In order to retain the changes you make you need to
Save As using a more robust file format - preferably .docx which is the
native format for Word 2007.
