- 2. Formatting Effects Word 2010 has new and improved formatting effects. You can add effects such as gradient fills and reflections directly to the text in your document. You can also apply many of the same effects to text and shapes that you might already use for pictures, charts, and SmartArt graphics.
- 4. Navigation Pane The much improved navigation pane and find tools save time and simplify your work. The new enhancements make it easier than ever to browse, search, and even reorganize document content right from a single, easy-to-use pane.
- 7. More Themes A theme in Office affects the whole document and offers a way to co- ordinate different elements of the page stylishly. Live previews (just hover over the thumbnail image of the theme) let you see what the theme will look like when applied, before you actually apply it.

- 9. Paste Preview When you copy a styled piece of text, Paste Preview in Word 2010 gives you a variety of options when it comes time to paste it: Keep Source Formatting – this option retains the formatting used on the source document you copied. This means that text will be displayed using the same fonts and other attributes like the line height of text will be retained too. Images are inserted with the same vertical and horizontal spacing. Merge Formatting – the pasted elements will adopt the formatting currently in use in the destination Word 2010 document. Keep Text Only – using this option will discard certain things that were present in the source, such as images and formatting. Only plain text will be pasted so headings, for example, will lose their size and bolding.

- 13. Artistic Effects There are lots of different Artistic Effects that you can apply to the pictures you insert into your Word document. These effects are applied with just one mouse click. The beauty of Artistic Effects is that you can apply them quickly and you don’t have to perform complicated steps to get stunning results. If you have time to experiment, though, you might like to exert more control over the effects by using the Artistic Effect Options.

- 15. Background Removal Tool There is a handy new tool that narrows the gap between word processor and image editor. Word 2010 now has a background removal tool, although it’s pretty basic compared to Adobe Photoshop’s capabilities. If there are large areas of a picture that Word can identify as being the background, you can remove it very easily using the background removal tool.
- 18. Improved WordArt WordArt is a gallery of text styles that you can add to your Office documents to create decorative effects, such as shadowed or reflected text. In Word and PowerPoint, you can also convert existing text into WordArt. The good thing about WordArt is that even with complicated effects, it remains editable text.
