Tips and Tricks

Count on cross-platform compatibility

You can't afford to have information “lost in translation.” Office for Mac 2008 uses the same file format as the Windows-based Office system and features the same sophisticated graphics engine.

Compatibility is Essential

Be presentation ready on campus or off

Inspiration can strike anywhere — including when you're away from your computer. Export your presentations to your iPod® or iPhone® with PowerPoint 2008. Then your presentation is always with you.

Give a presentation from an iPod

Access and share your files online

Off campus shouldn't mean out of touch. Use Microsoft Office Live Workspace or Microsoft Windows SharePoint® Services to collaborate online via Microsoft Document Connection for Mac.

What people are saying

"As a student, my favorite feature is the audio notebook in Word, which I use to record important lectures. It lets me intersperse my notes with actual audio from the lectures. This is really helpful to me. Pages can't do that."
