Default Please Help!

My version of Publisher came equipped with a "Help" button. When I click
on it and then on "index", I can type in the word "picture" and then
find the entry about "adding to publications" and learn about it from
there. I guess newer versions of Publisher don't have this feature any more?

Roia was very recently heard to utter:


Where could I go to look for designs (i.e. if I wanted to look up
front cover page designs for a magazine look?)

The front of a magazine?

Honestly I must reply. :-) What is this fetish with templates? Go to any
bookstore or magazine stand and look at hundreds of real magazine
covers. What do you like? Sketch them out. Anyone can sketch boxes and
lines. Or take photos of the ones you like. Go home and duplicate the
design in Publisher. When you start working you'll make changes of your own.

I have many issues with Microsoft, but Publisher is an intuitive, easy
to use program made exactly for this kind of graphic design! (unless it
has changed greatly since I bot Pub 2002) Insert graphics, draw a text
box anywhere, format it. Use your imagination.
