Automate Away Annoyances with Macros
In this tutorial, we'll disucss how to eliminate 15 or so common annoyances by using macros. Some of these annoyances are specific ones that you may share: for example, it may irk you that Word doesn't automatically return to the last editing position when you open a document, that it indiscriminately capitalizes the first letter of every word when you apply title case to selected text, or that you have to mess with the Paste Options dialog box or the Paste Options Smart Tag if you want to paste in text with no formatting.

Printing, Faxing, and Scanning
This tutorial shows you how to deal with the worst printing annoyances that Word throws at you, starting with serious annoyances (Word crashes whenever you print, or printing simply fails) and moving along to tips for printing ranges of pages, printing in reverse order or draft quality, and performing complex duplexing for recalcitrant photocopiers. You'll also learn how to deal with "Bizarre Swelling of the Right Margin Syndrome," how to respond when your printer slices off your footer, and how to create a print file.

Formatting and Layout
Normally, getting text into a document and doing basic editing provides plenty of annoyances but formatting and layout offer even more. Don't worry, though: this tutorial shows you how to wrestle most of these annoyances into submission, and how to work around the rest.
Your first order of business is to sort out Normal.dot. If the default font, view, and margins aren't to your liking in Normal.dot, they won't be in any documents based on it eitherwhich means all documents that you don't specifically base on another template.
Next up are direct formatting tips, numbering woes, and advice on using Word's styles. Formatting is easy to apply in moderation but can quickly become confusing, especially when Word starts switching the language on you without warning. Automatic numbered lists can be a great time-saverwhen they work. Styles can save you even more time, provided that you know how to create them, apply them effectively, and deal with their quirks.

Text Entry and Editing
Almost every document needs some text and Word offers many features for helping you create it quickly and accurately without wearing out your fingertips. This tutorial explores how to eliminate annoyances you may encounter when entering and editing text.

Word on Mac
You can get almost any regular Mac user to tell you dozens of ways in which Mac OS X is superior to Windows, from its more "intuitive" interface to its BSD-based resistance to most of the less sophisticated forms of attack that can cripple even Windows XP systems updated with the latest patches.
But get that same Mac user talking about Word for the Mac, and you're more likely to hear a litany of annoyances than a paean of praise. Word for the Mac shares many of the features that have made Word for Windows a prerequisite of the modern business world, but not all of them.
