considering purchasing publisher - need help

[Soft_vllyballmom]

My company is considering purchasing publisher for newsletters instead of
using Word. We have Office 2003 standard. We use an 11x17 sheet which
actually comes out to 4 - 8x11 sheets - front, back, and two inside pages. I
send this directly to my printer from the computer and would like to know how
easy publisher is in setting up these parameters. Any help would be greatly
appreciated. Can you also tell me if it is worth purchasing publisher or to
continue using Word?

It's as simple as four clicks in Publisher. I'd definitely recommend
using it.

Dump Word for newsletters! Use the right tool for the job - Publisher.

You'll find that you were severely limiting yourself with Word. I fight with
Word everytime I try to work with graphics, etc. I just can't be as creative
as I am with Publisher.
