Work Smarter and Easier with Familiar Office Tools
Publisher 2003 looks and works more than ever like other Office
programs. This makes it easier for you to take advantage of your
experience and knowledge while still selecting the right Office tool
for the task, even if you are new to Publisher 2003.
You may think that using Microsoft Word is the fastest way to
create fliers, brochures, and newsletters because you know Word so
well and use it daily. However, a page-layout program like Publisher
2003 can be the easiest way to create professional-looking marketing
materials and other publications.
