How To: Make A Business Flyer In Microsoft Word 2. When you’re on a budget, hiring a professional to design a flyer for your business is out of the question. One of the easiest ways to make a good- looking flyer in minutes is to use Word’s templates. Working with a professional printer is the most user- friendly choice for a beginner, as many have high- quality, easy to use design tools that make it possible to edit text, add graphics and use effects quickly.
In the last few days, I'm finally have time to create a brochure for my office using Microsoft office word. To save my times, I did search on Internet and. Offers users the ability to upload and share publicly or privately PowerPoint presentations, Word documents and Adobe PDF Portfolios.
1. Launch Microsoft Word and click the File tab. Select “New” and click once on the “Cards” button on the top row of the Available Templates pane.
In this step- by- step tutorial, I’m going to make a simple flyer by customizing one of Word’s templates. Step 1. Starting a new flyer project. Open Word (Start> Programs> Microsoft Word) and create a new flyer document (File> New> Blank Document> Flyers> Marketing Flyers). Wait for the list of the available templates to load and click on the preview. When the template shows up in the sidebar, click on the “Download” button to open it. For this tutorial, I’m using the General Consulting design, but the editing techniques I’m going to use are exactly the same for all designs. Remember that templates are provided by Office.
In order to use them, you need a working Internet connection. Step 2. Entering custom text. Click on the various text areas around the document and input your text.
Change the font style by right clicking the mouse, and then select the desired options from the pop- up text editor. Step 3. Entering shape areas.
Every area of your document is a shape. By double clicking on each of these areas, you can change their outline and fill (add solid colors, gradients, patterns, pictures) or apply other effects (shadows, 3.
D effects) from the Format menu. If you like, you can add new shapes or delete those you don’t need by selecting them and hitting backspace. To change the default photos, double click on them and select “Change Pictures” from the Format menu. Browse your folders until you find the images you want. It’s very simple to place and resize your images to fit the flyer’s layout. If you encounter troubles with positioning, try changing the way the text wraps around the images with “Wrap Text.”TIP: Photos and other graphics are the best way to make a flyer immediately eye- catching, but you should only choose high- quality images that are relevant to your project.
Select the sample logo by clicking on it and hit backspace to delete it, then Insert> Picture to add your own. Choose the logo from your hard drive. Here I am using a PNG file with transparent background. TIP: Logos with transparent backgrounds are more flexible because you can place them anywhere on your document without ugly boxes showing up around them.
Step 6. Saving the project. Click on the save icon on top of Word’s window and choose your desired document name and file format. For projects intended for printing, the best choice is to save as PDF. Check out our review tables to find the printer best suited to your needs. TIP: Remember to save your project often to make sure that no important change is lost. This is what our finished flyer looks like.
It didn’t take more than 1. And now, it's business time. The creation of a successful flyer for any business is a balanced combination of transparent concept and functional design.
In the end, it doesn’t really matter what tools you use: always keep in mind that a powerful message comes before the designing stage. Updated: Apr 1. 7th 2.
How to Make Place Cards With Microsoft Word. Customize company place cards in Microsoft Word. Jupiterimages/Photos.

Whether you’re gathering new employees for orientation, welcoming stockholders to report on the year’s earnings or inviting everyone associated with the business to join you for the holidays, you’ll want to avoid a madhouse scene when it comes time for attendees to take their seats. This doesn’t mean you have to settle for generic index cards or a scrawled sign outside the seating area.
Make your own place cards with Microsoft Word, a program typically already installed throughout your company’s software network. With Word’s place card templates, you're on your way quickly to showing folks to their seats. Launch Microsoft Word and click the File tab. Select “New” and click once on the “Cards” button on the top row of the Available Templates pane. Double- click the “Name and place cards” file folder icon.
Scroll through the template designs. You may not find one that exactly matches your business, but you’ll be able to modify any template you see here. Also check whether the template contains the number of cards to match your cardstock paper, usually 8 or 1. Double- click a template. After a few moments, a new Word window opens with the place cards aligned on the page and the yellow Text Box Tools tab shown open at the top of the screen.
Click into the placeholder default name on the first, top- left card. Double- click to highlight the name, then type over it with your first employee’s name or the name of the executive attending the event where the name cards will be used.
Change the appearance of the type, which comes in with whatever template theme default you chose, to better match your company’s style. Highlight the new name and click the Home tab if it is not already enabled. Pull down the font, font size and font color menus to make adjustments. One way to customize the cards is to change the color of the font so everyone’s name matches your logo. Repeat the process to change all of the default or sample names on the card. Word’s default names look like real names, if you don't change them you'll waste your place cards.
Click on any default image or picture that was included in the card template, which may be multiples if you chose holiday or other themed cards. Press the “Delete” key to remove them. Click the Insert tab. Click the Picture button on the ribbon and browse to your company logo.
Double- click to add it to the card. To resize the logo to fit attractively, press and hold down the “Shift” key, click the card and drag a corner to the middle to shrink it.
It’s always better to shrink, rather than enlarge an image, because enlarging can lead to a breaking up or distorting of the image, called pixilation. Right- click the new logo and select “Copy.” Move to the next card, delete any unwanted template pictures, right- click and select “Paste” to add the logo. Repeat until all cards have the logo. Click the Clip Art button, also on the Insert tab’s ribbon. Search for your own themed artwork to go on the place cards, such as a trophy for a sales award dinner or briefcases for an employee retirement ceremony. Add them to the place cards as needed.
Click the Page Layout tab, then click the “Page Color” button. Experiment with the small colored squares or the “Fill Effects” link to give the place cards a colored, patterned or textured background.
This can give the cards a striking look when placed on a white tablecloth, but skip this step if your cardstock already has a printed background. Click the File tab and select “Save As.” Choose the location on your company network to save the card file and give it a name in the “File name” box. Click the “Save” button. About the Author.
