SUMMARY
Word 2007 Made Easy: A Quick and Simple Guide for Students pretty
much does what it says on the tin. It condenses everything you need to
know about Microsoft Word 2007 into one short eBook that is quick,
simple and easy to use. It only tells you what you need to know, it
uses simple everyday language with no technical jargon, and the
step-by-step instructions and diagrams show you exactly what to do. It
doesn't matter what stage you are at with your studies, this will save
you time when writing your projects and help you get more marks.
IT'S EASY TO USE
Almost every set of step-by-step instructions has less than 7
simple steps, and each one uses just one sentence and no technical
terms to describe what to do. As if this wasn't easy enough, these
instructions are accompanied by large screen shots that show you
exactly what to do and where to do it at every step of the way. You
can actually do everything in the book just by looking at the
pictures!
IT COVERS EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW!
The eBook tells you, as a student, everything that you need to know
and nothing that you don't. Too many computer books assume that you
want to know everything or that you are interested in Word itself. But
the fact is, you don't care! You just want to find out what to do and
then get on with it. This ebook is all about letting you do this.
Check out the chapter summaries here. You'll see how this is all about
helping you as a student write projects quickly and get better marks
whilst you're at it.

most of this for you. Students often get marks for the presentation
and organisation of their project and this is an easy way to pick up
