Word now features graphic-creation and manipulation tools to meet modern expectations.
Office 2010 offers stronger graphics capability in all apps. This change shows MS responds to popular needs - even when it involves a file format is proprietary to a company other than MS. You can print to pdf directly from any of the Office apps: No more plug-in, driver, or secondary app. However, the graphic nature of Backstage has blocked some file-management keyboard shortcuts popular among traditional power users.Īnother great advance: native support for pdf creation. This is a great feature, and justifies whatever code bloat it required to incorporate. The ribbons are still there, and still require a surprising number of clicks to perform some basic tasks (changing paragraph styles is one example).īig news in all apps is the “Backstage” view which gathers all functions to be found on the File menu, combined on a single pane with a print preview. Unlike its predecessor, the 2010 update doesn’t demand much adjustment on the user-interface front. Office 2007 introduced the ribbon-interface which tended to confuse users of previous versions. Row limit is now 1,048,576, up from a mere 64,000 or so in the 32-bit version.
This will encourage power users of Excel. The biggest news is the 64-bit compatibility. That’s what’s made MSOffice an essential in the modern world. Taken together, there’s enough utility in this suite to handle 95% of the demands of most desk jobs anywhere. Each of the major applications has become the standard within its own category. If you’re not already familiar, MS Office combines the applications for spreadsheet (Excel), word processing (Word), email and scheduling (Outlook), database (Access), presentations (PowerPoint) and lesser-known apps for note-keeping (OneNote) and web design (Publisher). You’ll find a host of new and upgraded features, some of which are useful to general users, although many - like its new 64-bit codebase - will likely appeal only to serious power users and enterprise software buyers. Microsoft offers their latest upgrade to the world's premier office productivity suite with the 2010 version of Office Professional.
