1. Open Microsoft Publisher.

2. On the menu on the left of the screen, choose "Newsletters."

3. Select a style of newsletter you prefer.

4. Click the "Start Wizard" icon below the style gallery.

5. Your newsletter format will load.

6. Follow the "Newsletter Wizard" instructions on the left of the screen to complete the formatting.

7. When finished with programmed formatting, enlarge your newsletter by clicking in the drop-down viewing menu on the top tool bar. Your newsletter will be easy to view and edit at 75%.

8. You can edit the text in the newsletter the same way you edit text in Microsoft Word, by clicking on or to the right of text you want changed and either deleting or backspacing.

9. To add your own writing pieces, open Microsoft Word, open your document, and copy and paste the document to the Microsoft Publisher newsletter you are working on. Again, this is the same process you would use if you were cutting and pasting from two documents using Word.

10. To add a picture or graphic, you can click on and delete the default picture on your newsletter and then choose "Insert" on the toolbar to add a graphic from the Publisher file, or follow the steps for downloading a picture from the Internet.
