Save as PDF

It is now easier to save and share documents, presentations, and workbooks by using the popular Portable Document Format (PDF). PDF helps ensure that documents appear with the correct layout and fonts on any computer that can view PDF files. The PDF file format option is now available in the Save As dialog box on the File menu in Word, PowerPoint, and Excel.

Automate commonly performed tasks

Automator is a Mac OS X v10.4 (Tiger) application that helps to automate commonly performed and repetitive tasks. In Office 2008 and Office 2008 Home and Student Edition, all of the applications come with several sample Automator workflows. For example, a workflow in Word converts text to audio and sends the audio to an iPod. In Entourage, users can use a sample workflow to print selected e-mail messages.

New features in Word

New formatting tools, views, templates, and a fresh, intuitive user interface in Word 2008 can help transform creative ideas into great-looking documents. In addition to enhancements made to the standard print layout view, Word 2008 introduces a new specialized environment called publishing layout view that brings desktop-publishing-caliber tools to Word.

Publishing layout view in Word 2008 includes specialized tools like professional-quality layout guides and templates.

Create professional-looking documents

Word 2008 helps produce professional-looking documents by providing a comprehensive set of tools, such as publishing layout view, new publishing templates, and ligatures in fonts, for creating and formatting documents.

Document Elements (for word processing) This feature can help automate common, but sometimes time-consuming tasks. Available in the Elements Gallery, these professionally designed publishing components include cover pages, tables of contents, headers, footers, and bibliographies to help users quickly assemble complex documents.
