Richer user-defined object styling infrastructure.For this, you still have to rely on Microsoft Word This crucial feature of long documents is simply not in Publisher, unless you’re planning to write you own table of contents manually. Although tables of contents(TOC) can be generated easily in Microsoft Word, this is not possible in Publisher. You can’t mark keywords and you cannot create an index section. If there was support for cross-references (for example, See ‘XYZ’ on page 23) or a richer linking mechanism for integrating hyperlinks, this would help you create relationships for readers between different articles on a page. Drag and resize the textbox as you would do in Microsoft Word on your page and you’re done.ģ things that could turn Publisher 2003 into a long document authoring solution: Simply paste content from Microsoft Excel, Clipart Organizer or Microsoft Word in to Publisher and they will be inserted into its own textbox.
