This book explains how to write, edit, and design a book; lay out the pages using styles and templates; build a table of contents and index; include pictures, graphics, and special effects; and create a PDF for submission to POD services.

I really do not understand why Microsoft Office sells items from their table at such a price when it is really not worth it. The open office writer version 3 has always proved to be better than the Office from Microsoft. Besides, they are only giving us an additional insurance by making the product all the way free to download. I think that Microsoft Office should either come up with something revolutionary or make it free!
