Word 2003, the latest version of the best-selling
word processor, takes customer experience and
feedback to deliver innovations you can use to
create impressive-looking documents and help you
work better with others.
Communicate and Share Information Better
Communicate quickly and effectively with
others—internally and across organizations.
• Work together better. Save Word 2003 documents to
shared workspaces where other team members can get
the latest version, check the documents in or out,
or even save task lists, related documents, links,
and member lists. Shared workspaces require
Microsoft Windows Server™ 2003 running Microsoft
Windows® SharePoint™ Services.
• Control distribution of sensitive documents. Help
protect your company assets by preventing recipients
from forwarding, copying, or printing important
documents by using information rights management (IRM)
functionality. You can even specify an expiration
date for the message, after which it cannot be
viewed or changed. IRM functionality requires
Windows Server 2003 running Microsoft Windows Rights
Management Services (RMS).
Note With Microsoft Office Professional Edition
2003, you can use Word 2003 to create IRM-protected
documents and grant other users permission to access
and modify your documents. You can also apply policy
templates to IRM-protected documents you create.
With Microsoft Office Standard Edition 2003,
Microsoft Office Small Business Edition 2003, and
Microsoft Office Student and Teacher Edition 2003
you can read IRM-protected documents; with
permission, you can modify them as well.
• Collaborate with confidence. Designate certain
sections of your document to be modified by specific
people to better protect how your document is
modified and reduce the number of conflicting
comments you receive. You can even prevent reviewers
from making changes unless they turn revision marks
on, or make the entire document read-only with key
portions that can be modified only by specific
individuals. Also help protect the formatting and
style of your document.
• See comments and revisions more easily. Markup
features in Word 2003 have been enhanced to make
comments more visible and offer better ways to help
you track and merge changes and read comments.
• Communicate instantly with others. No need to
leave Word 2003 to find out if an instant messaging
(IM) contact is online—you can access IM and even
initiate IM conversations in Word 2003.
• Go mobile. If you own and use a Tablet PC, you can
annotate Word 2003 documents using a pen input
device—in your own handwriting. You can annotate
documents for personal use, such as taking notes, or
to send to others.
Capture and Reuse Information
Bring information into your documents for more
timely access to the information you need to make
good decisions.
• Create organizational solutions with XML. Word
2003 supports both the Extensible Markup Language
(XML) file format and custom schemas, providing the
basis for building solutions to business problems
such as data reporting, publishing, and submitting
data to business processes.
Note In all Office 2003 Editions, Word 2003
documents can be saved in a native XML file format
which can be manipulated and searched using any
program that can process industry standard XML. With
Office Professional Edition 2003, companies can also
use customized XML formats—or schemas—to enable
easier and more advanced information creation,
capture, exchange, and reuse.
• Interact with business systems. Save and open XML
files in Word 2003 to integrate with key business
data in your organization. Developers can build
solutions that use XML to interact with business
systems through a task pane in Word 2003.
• Customize functionality with enhanced smart tags.
Smart tags in Word 2003 are more flexible. Associate
smart tags with specific content and have the
appropriate smart tag appear when you point to the
associated words.
