Ribbon in Publisher?
Jan Kucera wrote:
That's true, do you think it couldn't be separated? It would be quite pretty to have all these shadows and glows in Publisher instead of WordArt, as well as SmartArt or math/equations. I believe that live preview is not possible, though. And I would welcome the XML file format as well, which could be probably achieved without Ribbon. I think that if I should choose between these features and not having the Ribbon, I would probably choose not having the Ribbon. I think the Ribbon _could_ work in Publisher, and if it had to come in order to get OfficeArt, then it'd be welcome. That's JMHO, though. The XML file format I'm less bothered about. If it means Publisher files are less prone to corruption, then it would be welcome, but it would bring back all the problems surrounding compatibility between versions. Unless a rock-solid Filter Pack were released for older versions, as has been done with Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. However, formatting loss (as seems to have always been the case when Publisher has had Save As An Older Version) would be an unacceptable trade-off, IMHO. -- Ed Bennett - MVP Microsoft Publisher http://ed.mvps.org |
