Microsoft Publisher 2010 Academic 164-06306 provides a broad range of new and improved tools that help you look like a design genius and create content that’s sure to impress.

Use improved picture-editing tools—including the ability to pan, zoom, and crop your images and picture placeholders—that make it a snap to replace images while preserving the layout of your page. Easily fine-tune every picture to help your publication look its absolute best.

Design and reorganize pages like a pro with new object alignment technology. This technology provides visual guides to help you effortlessly align and position your content, but it always leaves the final layout up to you.

Create dynamic publications in very little time when you insert and customize prebuilt building blocks of content, both built-in and from the Microsoft Publisher 2010 community, directly from Publisher 2010. Choose from an array of page parts—such as sidebars and stories—as well as calendars, borders, advertisements, and more.

Give your text the appearance of expert typesetting with new OpenType typography. Publisher 2010 provides support for the ligatures, stylistic sets, and other professional typography features available in many OpenType fonts. Use built-in or custom
OpenType fonts to create text as impactful as images with just a couple of clicks.
