As consultants to Microsoft, Pamela Beason and Stephen Guild worked on WORD's on-line documentation. Having helped shape the program, they bring an expert, no-nonsense approach to this volume. Free of jargon and complex language, the book provides hints, tips and examples to show how to use the program most effectively. It uses real-life examples: sample documents and scenarios that lawyers, writers, architects, accountants, scientists, business executives and clerical personnel can identify with. Special attention is given to printing and page layout, because WORD is a transitional product between a regular word processor and a desktop publishing system. The authors describe shortcuts to using WORD and offer troubleshooting strategies to help readers recover when things go wrong.
