Microsoft Office 2016 - Publisher (Part 1)
   
 

This month we take look at three tips and tricks that you can use with Publisher.

Tip 1 - Select Objects Tool & Grouping

The Select Objects Tool can be used to draw around a group of objects, which selects all of them and then they can be moved, deleted, etc., as a group. You can also use that same method or click on multiple objects with the use of the CTRL key, then click on the Group icon below the objects. This is an effective tool if you need to move a large amount of objects to different areas of your publication.

Tip 2 - Insert Pages Options

You can insert additional pages into a publication by going to the Insert-Page option in the menus. There are options in the dialog box depending upon what kind of publication you are working on. These options will allow you to insert blank pages, duplicate objects, insert only a singe page and more.

Tip 3 - Filling Space

When creating a publication users will occasionally be confronted by running out of content for a page, but not wanting to extend other content from other areas of the publication. Since objects in Publisher can be easily modified, some good options are to increase the size of your images, add a caption text box, change the font to a larger style, or increase the font size in certain text boxes. Any of these options will quickly fill up any blank space on your current page.
