As indicated, at the beginning of the tutorial, we think the Flyer is the easiest publication on which to begin. So, click-again on the Flyer category under Wizards (on the left of the screen). Your screen should look like the one below.

 

We’ll use the "Arcs" style for all of our publications. It is the one above on the right. Point to the Arcs Informational Flyer with your mouse and click-on it. It will appear, when you click-on it, that it is "indented" a little (like the one above). This indicates that you have selected this flyer.

Once you have selected the Arcs Informational Flyer, look at the lower right corner of the Microsoft Publisher Catalog. You will see a "button" that indicates "Start Wizard." Point to this button with your mouse and click-on it.

 

A new screen will now appear. On the left side you will see Flyer Wizard at the top (like the picture to the left).

On the right side of the screen you will see the Arcs Informational Flyer template that you will use to create your own flyer by using this Wizard.

Read the Introduction and notice at the end of the instructions it indicates to click-on the Next > to begin this Flyer Wizard.

You will see the Next button below the Introduction. Click-on Next >.

The Flyer Wizard Color Scheme will now appear. Use the elevator bar to move up and down the Color Schemes. As you move, click-on several of the color schemes. As you select the different Color Schemes, you will notice that the Flyer template on the right changes its Color Scheme to the one you selected in the Color Scheme on the left.

We’ll choose the Burgundy Color Scheme since these reflect our college colors.

Now click the Next>button, at the bottom of the Flyer Wizard again.

 

The Flyer Wizard Graphic screen appears (as on the left). Notice in the Flyer template on the right that there is a picture of a sunset. Now look at the Graphic Wizard on the left and notice that the "Yes circle" has a "dot" in it. Click-in the No circle. In a few seconds you will notice that the photograph disappears from the Flyer template on the right. So, you can see that you have the choice of having or not having, a photograph in your flyer. We’ll leave the photograph in our flyer, so click again in the Yes circle. The photograph will again appear.

Now click the Next>button, at the bottom of the Flyer Wizard again.

 

You now see Flyer Wizard Tear-Offs appear on the left. Notice that the default choice is None. As you did in the last Wizard, click-in each of the little circles to the left of the Tear-Off choices. As you click, look at the flyer template and notice how each Tear-Off selection appears in the flyer template on the right. For our first flyer we won’t use any Tear-Offs, so click in the little circle to the left of None. Later, when you have become proficient in Publisher, you can experiment with the various types of flyers.

Now click the Next> button, at the bottom of the Flyer Wizard again.

 

The Flyer Wizard Customer Address now appears on the left. Notice that you have a choice to insert a mailing address. Go ahead and click-in the little circle to the left of Yes. When you do, you will notice that as the flyer template on the right indicates that it has created a "back" page (page 2) to accommodate this address. This is in reality the opposite side of the paper on which you print the flyer.

When the Wizard creates the "back" page it let’s you know this with the information below. Click-on OK.

 

Notice now, at the bottom left of the screen that there are symbols that indicate that there are now a front and back to the flyer. Page 1 is the front, and Page 2 the back. It looks like the picture to the right. Click-on Page 2 and look at the page.

For now we’ll leave off any address. We’ll get into this later with the brochure and newsletter. So, click-back in the little circle to the left of No. The second, address page will disappear.

Now click the Next> button, at the bottom of the Flyer Wizard again.

 

The Flyer Wizard Personal Information screen now appears (as shown at the left). When you first installed Office 2000 Professional, Premium or just the Publisher 2000, you should have been asked to enter your business, organization and personal addresses. If you did not do this, you can do it now. These addresses and this information will be used throughout all of the Microsoft Publisher 2000 publications. You don’t need to enter this information, as you will be able to edit any addresses, in any publication, as you create it. However, it sure is a lot easier to start with some basic addresses. So, go ahead and click-on the Update… button.
