You've got Microsoft Word, the powerful, top-selling word processing program. And you've got ideas for promoting yourself and/or your business. What you don't have is the know-how to use Word to create the custom documents you envision.
Here to help you use Word to quickly create professional-looking documents is this slim, focused volume by Word expert, Maria Langer. Rather than cover every last feature and option, she leads you along the quickest, easiest route to creating the documents you'll use most to make yourself--and your busines--shine. On these pages, you'll find large, colorful screen shots and clear, step-by-step instructions for creating a letterhead template, resume, business cards, flyers, envelopes, and return address labels. As you follow along, using you own content to complete each project component, you'll learn how to enter and format text, insert and position graphics, add page borders, and use Word's built-in envelope and label tools. Best of all, you'll have the key documents you need to sell yourself or get your business off and running
