Interactive Office 2007 Command
Reference Guides Help You Find What You're Looking For!
Can't find a function in Office 2007 that you knew how to find in
Office 2003? Take heart! These visual, interactive
command reference guides help you find your favorite Microsoft Office 2003
commands in the new 2007 interface in just a click. Just "mouse over" an Office 2003
menu command in each application, and a little box at the top tells
you where to find that command in the Office 2007 version of the
application.
Installable "Get Started" Tabs
Install a
"Get Started" tab into each of your Office 2007 applications, and you'll
have easy, immediate access to links to training courses, demos, and an
online interactive mapping tool that will show you where to find
previous Office 2003 buttons and commands in Office 2007.

Install the Microsoft Add-In to Enable
"Save-As" Directly to PDF format from all Office 2007 Applications
Once MS Office 2007 is installed on your computer, be sure
that the MS Office Add-In that enables you to save any document as a PDF
has been installed.
To check, just click the Office button
 at the top
left of whatever Office 2007 application you're working in, and select
Save As. If PDF is one of the save options, then the Add-In has
been installed. If not, then (if you're on your home PC), just
download and install it. If you're working on your office computer,
then your IT department may need to install this for you.
