Author: Computeractive Staff
Date: 09-02-2010

This Workshop is for anyone who has ever wanted to sketch a directions map quickly and make multiple copies easily.It shows how to use the drawing tools in Word to create a simple road map that can be printed out as part of a party invitation, uploaded to a website or fitted on the back of a business card.The beauty of Word’s drawing tools is that they are extremely easy to use, convenient and much more flexible than they initially appear to be. The fancy formatting features allow you to make maps look great, and include all the turn-left, turn-right symbols information a visitor needs.We will be using Word 2007 but the techniques demonstrated can be applied in earlier versions.
