If you need to make a timeline graphic for a work or school presentation, but you don't want to download anything or pay to create it, you're in luck: There is a way to use Google Docs to get it done.

If you're hoping to make your Google Doc look like a book, you can follow the steps above to achieve the general presentation of a book page with the correct margins, page numbers, and layout.

Use the Google Docs built-in drawing tool. If you plan to use the drawing only for the current Google Doc, you can create it right through the application.
