Insert, delete fields like: author, file name and path.
In Writer, fields are one of the most useful features. We can use fields for a number of different purposes. Fields are used to enter standard data blocks into a document. These can be current date, the total number of pages in a document, page number or even some conditional content. These are only some of the many field types available in Writer.
To insert fields into a document, click on ‘Insert’ from the main menu bar, and from the resulting menu, click on ‘Fields’. This will display a sub-menu which lists a number of different fields available in writer. We can select the required field name from this list and the selected field will get inserted into the document.
