Why is WordArt so different between Word and Excel 2007?
Hi all. Can anyone tell me why the WordArt styles are so different between
Word/Outlook 2007 on the one hand, and Excel/Powerpoint 2007 on the other? It seems that the Word/Outlook styles are the same as those in 2003, but the Excel/Powerpoint ones are newer. This question is on behalf of a user here at work who would like to use the newer styles in Word 2007 ...... thanks! |

Hi Dobbie,
Powerpoint and Excel have the full implementation of an updated graphics engine which included the new WordArt. Word (and the Word clone that Outlook uses) do not. The older style WordArt is available in Powerpoint and Excel as well. ============= "Dobbie" wrote in message ... Hi all.

Thanks Bob!
 )Do you know if Microsoft are planning a patch/update release to standardise WordArt across the whole suite, or will it stay as it is?

It will stay as it is for Office 2007. It's expected to be updated in all of
the Office programs in the next release, which won't be available for at least a couple of years. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit.

If you prefer the "new" wordart in excel and want to use it in Word, try
creating it in excel, copying it then pasting into your word document! "Dobbie" wrote: Thanks to you both Jay and Bob for your answers! )"Jay Freedman" wrote: It will stay as it is for Office 2007.
