With the new design tools, you can experiment more freely and design sophisticated content with the right flair.

Use simple tools to grab attention with photos instantly.

Replace images
Import all images into a Publisher workspace, and then easily swap them into your layout using drag & drop. Experiment with different images without wasting time.

Effects Use professional effects for text, shapes and images, such as softer shadows, reflections and OpenType features like ligatures and stylistic alternates. You're likely already familiar with using these effects from other Office applications where they are supported.

Online graphics Use Publisher to browse your online albums on Facebook, Flickr and other services, and add images directly to the document without having to save them first to your desktop, laptop or tablet.

Background images Use your photos as high-resolution page backgrounds and give your publications a flawless and professional look.

Personalize your publications with familiar tools

Mail merge
Use photos and links with the familiar mail merge tools to emphasize the personal touch of your magazines, cards and email messages.

Mailings tab
All the personalization features you need are in one place: the ribbon.

Create publications ideally tailored to your audience.

Simplified sharing
Your documents are saved to the cloud by default. To share and co-author publications, simply send others a link.

Photo printing Now you can have your great publications or photo albums printed more easily at any print shop by saving all pages in a common image format such as JPG.

Email Send a single page as an email, or send the entire publication (as HTML) in an email message, with all pages automatically combined into one message.
