Beim erstmaligen Arbeiten mit einer neuen Version eines neues Produkts oder wenn man ein Upgrade aus einer früheren Office Version auf Microsoft Office 2013 ausführt, treten sicherlich auch Fragen auf. Damit wir Unterstützung bei den ersten Schritten mit Office 2013 haben, hat Microsoft nun die folgenden Handbücher erstellt. Somit steht uns eine Übersicht über die Neuerungen und Verbesserungen in Office 2013 zum kostenfreien Download bereit. Erst letzte Woche hatte Microsoft die Office 2013 Quick Start Guides veröffentlicht. Sie bieten euch hilfreiche Tipps, die bei einem erfolgreichen Einstieg helfen.

• What’s New in Word 2013?
  With Word 2013, you can do more with your docs: pop in an online video, open a PDF in Word and reuse the content, or align pictures and diagrams with minimal fuss. The new Read Mode is clean and distraction free—and it works great on tablets. Teaming up is better too, with connections to SkyDrive® Pro and streamlined review features like Simple Markup and Reply Comment.

• What’s New in PowerPoint 2013?
  PowerPoint® 2013 has a brand new look. It’s cleaner and primed for use on tablets, so you can swipe and tap your way through presentations. Presenter View automatically adjusts your projection setup, and you can even use it on a single monitor. Themes come with variations, which makes it easy to hone in on the look you want. And when you’re working with others, you can reply to comments and have meaningful conversations where they matter most.

• What’s New in Access 2013?
  With the new Access, you don’t have to be a developer to quickly create custom browser-based apps. Access apps reliably solve business needs such as contact management, customer billing, and order tracking. The new “App Experience” makes navigating easy. Access ensures end users can find features and commands. You can control your Access apps with SharePoint® in a browser via Office 365™.

• What’s New in OneNote 2013?
  OneNote® is a digital notebook for capturing, storing, and sharing all kinds of information—notes, pictures, web pages, and media. You can access your OneNote information wherever you go on any device. Create notes, sketch a diagram, record a lecture, and connect them to related presentation files, photos, videos, web links, charts, and more. OneNote 2013 has a fresh, clean look that lets you focus on your ideas instead of the interface. Full integration with the cloud using SkyDrive® Pro means you can free your files from your computer’s hard drive and access your notes on SkyDrive Pro from your tablet or Windows Phone, or from virtually any browser.

  The new Office transforms how you work. Each application start is a new experience designed to help productivity. Open an existing document or use a template to create a new document. It’s also easier to share and collaborate. You can use new features like SkyDrive® Pro to save and share your files right from your Office applications.

Die Guides für Office 2013 stehen zurzeit leider nur in englischer Sprache zur Verfügung. Ich gehe aber davon aus, dass die Lokalisierung bzw. Übersetzung nicht allzu lange auf sich warten lassen wird. Zum Betrachten der Dokumente werden Word oder der kostenlos erhältliche Word Viewer benötigt.
