Using MS Word

MS Word is not as versatile or as easy to use as Publisher for creating various types of publications, since Word was not designed to be a desktop publishing program. However, you can use Word templates to make brochures and newsletters.

You can find templates and download them to your computer at the Templates page on the Microsoft Web site. On this page, you will also find links to Training and Clip Art and Media.
