Reunion Booklet or Directory
I am trying to create a class reunion contact directory/ booklet but have not
been successful at finding a template. I am new to Publisher and have been told it will work better than Word. Any suggestions? |

Reunion Booklet or Directory
Sometimes (most times) templates are not exactly what we need. When that
happenes, start with whatever is closest, delete the rest out, and start from scratch. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] Tech Editor for "Microsoft Publisher 2007 For Dummies" "Anne Kelly" Anne wrote in message ...

I could start from scratch, but also don't want to reinvent the wheel. :-)
I'd be happy to start from something as you say, and then delete. Still trying to find a starting point. "JoAnn Paules" wrote: Sometimes (most times) templates are not exactly what we need.

What version Publisher?
Your best solution would be the catalog merge, it makes great directories. You can even include pictures. There is good help here for 2003. It is the same for 2007 but this help is more detailed. There is a training video as well http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/pu...504381033.aspx -- Mary Sauer MSFT MVP http://office.microsoft.com/ http://msauer.mvps.org/ news://msnews.microsoft.com "Anne Kelly" wrote in message ...

I'm doing the same thing. Did you decide what software to use? Did you find
a template? Thank you. Annaliza Moorhead "Anne Kelly" wrote: I am trying to create a class reunion contact directory/ booklet but have not been successful at finding a template. I am new to Publisher and have been told it will work better than Word. Any suggestions? |
