INTRODUCTION

Welcome to Life After Word 2003. This manual will serve

as both an introduction to Microsoft Word 2007, as well
as a guide to better assist your transition from Word
2003 to Word 2007. The bulk of this publication will be a
How to manual presenting the fundamental steps in Word
2007, but will also include tables at the end of each
section comparing the steps you took in Word 2003 to the
steps you will now take in Word 2007. While Microsoft has
made some noticeable changes to their latest release of
Office, we hope that with the assistance of this guide
your transition will not be too intimidating. The
instructions in this document are assuming that all
settings are the defaults. If you have changed any of the
settings in Word 2007, the images and instructions may be
somewhat different. The images you see in the following
document were taken on a Windows Vista PC using Microsoft
Word 2007.

WHATS NEW

Word 2007 presents a new user-interface which is quite

different than previous versions of Word. This section
will provide you with some basic information about the
new look and features available in Word 2007 in order to
help you get started.

Figure 1: The Ribbon

The Ribbon - Upon launching Word 2007 for the first

time the most noticeable change is likely Microsofts
replacement of the traditional toolbars and menus with
the Ribbon. The Ribbon presents you with a panel of
commands which are organized into a set of tabs (known as
the Tab Bar). Each task-oriented tab presents groupings
of tasks and their associated subtasks..

The Microsoft Office Button - The Microsoft Office

Button has replaced the File menu in earlier versions of
Word. By clicking on this button, you are presented with
the commands previously found in the File menu of Word
2003, including New, Open, Save, Save As, Print and
Close. In addition, some of these commands include an
expandable menu to provide additional options.

Live Preview - Another new feature in Word 2007 is Live

Preview, which temporarily applies formatting on the
selected text or object when you mouse-over any of the
formatting buttons. This temporary formatting is removed
once the mouse pointer is moved away from the button,
allowing you to preview how the text would appear without
having to apply it.

Mini Toolbar The Mini Toolbar pops up whenever text

is selected. This new feature provides easy access to the
most commonly used formatting commands in Word. The
toolbar will also appear when you right-click on a
selection of text. Initially, the toolbar is

2
semitransparent to allow you a
nearly unobstructed view of the
text beneath, and becomes opaque
when the mouse pointer moves
over it.

buttons based on your personal
preferences.

File Format (OpenXML) The Microsoft Office suite

applications now use a new file format as the default
file format. Documents created in Word 2007 will use a
file extension of .docx (compared to .doc in previous
versions). Based on XML, this format uses the ZIP file
container, which is compressed and up to 75% smaller than
previous Office file formats. Additionally, Word 2007 is
able to open all previous versions of Word documents, and
you may wish to see Microsofts Download Site for
information pertaining to the availability of the
Compatibility Pack.
