To Save a Publication with a New File Name You have performed many tasks while creating this publication and do not want to risk losing work completed thus far. Accordingly, you should save the publication on your hard disk, SkyDrive, or a location that is most appropriate to your situation. The following steps assume you already have created folders for storing your files, for example, a CIS 101 folder (for your class) that contains a Publisher folder (for your assignments). Thus, these steps save the publication in the Publisher folder in the CIS 101 folder on your desired save location. For a detailed example of the procedure for saving a file in a folder or saving a file on SkyDrive, refer to the Office and Windows chapter at the beginning of this book.

BTW Organizing Files and Folders You should organize and store files in folders so that you easily can find the files later. For example, if you are taking an introductory computer class called CIS 101, a good practice would be to save all Publisher files in a Publisher folder in a CIS 101 folder. For a discussion of folders and detailed examples of creating folders, refer to the Office and Windows chapter at the beginning of this book.
associated with the selected save location (i.e., Computer or SkyDrive).
4 Type Concert Flyer in the File name text box to change the file name. Do not press the enter key after typing the file name because you do not want to close the dialog box at this time.
5 Navigate to the desired save location (in this case, the Publisher folder in the CIS 101 folder [or your class folder] on your computer or SkyDrive).
6 Tap or click the Save button (Save As dialog box) to save the file in the selected save folder on the selected location with the entered file name.
Break Point: If you wish to take a break, this is a good place to do so. To resume at a later time, run Publisher, open the file called Concert Flyer, and continue following the steps from this location forward.
Formatting Text Although you can format text before you type, many Publisher users enter text first and then format the existing text. Publisher provides many ways to modify the appearance, or format, of selected text. Some formatting options include editing the font, paragraph, alignment, typography, copy fitting, and text effects. The more common formatting commands are shown in the Font group on the home tab
