Create a New Flyers Document
Open Microsoft Publisher. Double-click Flyers from the list of template categories presented. Publisher displays a list of flyer templates in different styles. Choose a style and double-click it.
Edit the Document
The Publisher document opens with elements such as text boxes, shapes and images already positioned on the page. You can change any of these elements, remove them or add new elements to the document.
Move, Resize and Delete Elements
To move an element, click on the element, hold down the mouse button, and drag the element to a new position. To resize an element, click on the element to select it and display the resize handles, which are the squares on the sides and the circles in the corners. Click on one of the resize handles, hold down the mouse button, and drag to change the size. When you drag a corner, the element changes size without changing dimensions, but if you drag a side you stretch the element wider or narrower than it was. To delete an element, click on the element and press the Del key. To insert a new text box, select the Insert tab on the ribbon and click Draw Text Box. To insert a new image, select the Insert tab on the ribbon and click Pictures.
Edit Element Contents
To edit the text in a text box, click in the text box and then type to add, delete or modify text as you would in any document. To change the format of text in a text box, highlight the text you want to change, click the Format tab in the Text Box Tools section of the ribbon, and select an option to modify the format of the selected text. To change how an image is displayed, click on the image, click the Format tab in the ribbon, and select an option from the ribbon. To see detailed formatting options, right-click on the object, select Format Picture, Format Autoshape or Format Text Box from the menu, and edit the options in the Format Object dialog.
Save the Document
After you finish making changes, select the File tab on the ribbon and click Save. Publisher prompts you to enter a new file name for the document. Make sure to browse to the location where you want to save the file before you press the Save button, so you know where to find the new document. Writer Bio
