| Publisher offers several prepared
options for users. You can work off a template, follow a wizard to
customize a prepared publication, or apply designs, color schemes
and so on to your own documents. |
- Create new document - Go to File and select New
button. A selection panel will appear on the left side of your
document. There you can choose a publication by Wizard, by Design,
or a blank publication.
|
- Publications by Wizard - Publications are grouped by
publication designs such as flyers, invitations, resumes, etc.
|
- Publications by Design - Publications are grouped by
style rather than function.
|
- Blank Publications - Publications are grouped by function
without any formatting. Select the type of blank document you
would like to create.
|
- Special Features - After selecting your publication,
experiment with the options in the left side panel. There are
usually special features/options for the specific publication
you are creating. Then explore a different publication design,
color scheme or font scheme.
|
- Insert from the Design Gallery - The Design Gallery contains
a variety of prepared design elements that you can use in your
documents. Objects are organized in three ways:
- Objects by Category - select the specific element
- Objects by Design - select objects by a color scheme
and design style
- Your Objects - objects you import into the file
- Click the Design Gallery
 button
in the Objects toolbar and select the object from either of the
3 sections listed above.
|
- Create a template - A template is the same as a regular
publication except when Publisher opens the document, it opens
as a copy of the original.
Save your document as a template by going to Save As. Then
select Publisher template as file type before saving.
To open a template, choose New
and look under the New section for From Template.
