Do you have PhotoShop? I can do softened shadows in Corel. There is a free
program here that is a step way up from Paint.

Hi Mary.

I think you're right -- I think the help article is erroneous. It seems
to be a shared help article between Publisher 2003 and PowerPoint 2003,
so maybe that feature is only available in PowerPoint 2003. (Or maybe
there's a bug in Publisher 2003!)

At any rate, I shadowed the text as you suggested by copying it and
placing the copy behind and just below the original. It serves for now,
but I can't do a softened shadow like you can in Photoshop. It's just
the masthead of my newsletter.

How could I report this possible bug in Publisher 2003 / discrepancy in
the help file to Microsoft?

Thanks,

Chris
