Microsoft Workplace 2007 (officially called 2007 Microsoft Office System) is a Windows version of the Microsoft Workplace System, Microsoft's productivity suite. Formerly known as Office 12 in the first stages of its beta cycle, it was released to volume license customers on November 30, 2006[4] and made available to retail customers on January thirty, 2007. These are, respectively,buy office 2007 keygen, the same dates Windows Vista was released to volume licensing and retail customers. Workplace 2007 contains a number of new features, the most notable of which is the entirely new graphical user interface called the Fluent User Interface[5] (initially referred to as the Ribbon User Interface), replacing the menus and toolbars – which have been the cornerstone of Workplace since its inception – with a tabbed toolbar, known as the Ribbon. Workplace 2007 requires Windows XP with Service Pack 2 or higher, Windows Server 2003 with Service Pack 1 or higher, Windows Vista or Windows 7.[6] Workplace 2007 is the last version of Microsoft Office which is officially supported on Windows XP Professional x64 Edition.
The 'Ribbon User Interface' is a task-oriented Graphical User Interface (GUI). It features a central menu button, widely known as the 'Office Button'. The Ribbon Interface has been improved in Microsoft Workplace 2010.
Office 2007 also includes new applications and server-side tools. Chief among these is Groove, a collaboration and communication suite for smaller businesses, which was originally developed by Groove Networks before being acquired by Microsoft in 2005. Also included is Workplace SharePoint Server 2007, a major revision to the server platform for Workplace programs, which supports "Excel Services", a client-server architecture for supporting Excel workbooks that are shared in real time between multiple machines, and are also viewable and editable through a web page.
Microsoft FrontPage has been removed from the Workplace suite entirely. It has been replaced by Microsoft Workplace SharePoint Designer, which is aimed towards development of SharePoint portals. Its designer-oriented counterpart Microsoft Expression Web is targeted for general web development. However, neither application has been included in Workplace 2007.
Speech recognition and handwriting recognition are now part of Windows Vista. Speech and ink components have been removed from Office 2007.[7][8] Handwriting and speech recognition work with Office 2007 only on Windows Vista or Windows XP Tablet PC Edition. However, XP users can use an earlier version of Workplace to use speech recognition.[9]
According to Forrester Research, as of May 2010, Microsoft Workplace 2007 is used in 81% of enterprises.[10]

The first beta of Microsoft Workplace 2007, referred to as Beta-1 in emails sent to a limited number of testers, was released on November 16, 2005. The Beta-1 Technical Refresh was released to testers on March 13, 2006. The Technical Refresh fixed issues in installing with Windows Vista build 5308.
Microsoft revealed the Ribbon UI on March 9, 2006 at CeBIT in Germany.[11]
Office 2007 Beta 2 was announced by Bill Gates at WinHEC 2006, and was initially released to the public at no cost from Microsoft's web site. However, because of an unprecedented number of downloads, a fee of $1.50 was introduced for each product downloaded after August 2, 2006. The beta was updated on September 14, 2006 in Beta 2 Technical Refresh (Beta2TR). It included an updated user interface, better accessibility support, improvements in the robustness of the platform, and greater functionality.
The beta versions continued to function in a reduced functionality mode after February 1, 2007. If users downloaded the Technical Refresh to update Beta 2, then users could use its full functionality until March 31, 2007 for client products and May 15, 2007 for server products. The Beta program ended on November 8, 2006, when Microsoft declared the product "Released to Manufacturing" (RTM) and started manufacturing the final product. After RTM, the availability of the beta download ended.
Office 2007 was released to volume licensing customers on November 30, 2006, and to the general public on January thirty, 2007.
[edit] Service Pack 1
Microsoft Workplace 2007 Service Pack 1 was released on December 11, 2007. Microsoft published a list of changes.[12] Official documentation claims that SP1 is not simply a rollup of publicly released patches, but that it also contains fixes for 455 total issues throughout the entire Office suite.[13]
[edit] Service Pack 2
Microsoft Workplace 2007 Service Pack 2 was released on April 28, 2009.[14] Service Pack 2 is inclusive of Workplace 2007 Service Pack 1. It added improved support of ODF, XPS, and PDF standards as well as a large number of bug fixes.[15][16]

This is displayed in the actual programs themselves with a line of text after the program name. [edit] New features
[edit] User interface
The new user interface (UI), officially known as Fluent User Interface,[20][21] has been implemented in the core Microsoft Workplace applications: Phrase, Excel, PowerPoint, Access, and in the item inspector used to create or edit individual items in Outlook. These programs have been selected for the UI overhaul because they center around document authoring.[22] The rest of the programs in the suite will also be upgraded to the new UI in subsequent versions.[23] The default font used in this edition is Calibri. Original prototypes of the new user interface were revealed at MIX 2008 in Las Vegas.[24]
[edit] Workplace button
The Workplace 2007 button, located on the top-left of the window, replaces the File menu and provides access to functionality common across all Workplace programs, including opening, saving, printing, and sharing a file. It can also close the application. Users can also choose color schemes for the interface. A notable accessibility improvement is that the Office button follows Fitt's law.[25]
[edit] Ribbon
The Ribbon, a panel that houses a fixed arrangement of command buttons and icons, organizes commands as a set of tabs, each grouping relevant commands. The Ribbon is present in Microsoft Phrase 2007, Excel 2007, PowerPoint 2007, Access 2007 and some Outlook 2007 windows. The Ribbon is not user customizable in Office 2007. Each application has a different set of tabs which expose the functionality that application offers. For example, while Excel has a tab for the graphing capabilities, Phrase does not; instead it has tabs to control the formatting of a text document. Within each tab, various related options may be grouped together. The Ribbon is designed to make the features of the application more discoverable and accessible with fewer mouse clicks[26] as compared to the menu-based UI used prior to Office 2007. However, many users feel that the existing menus should have been left alone.[27][28] An online survey reports the ribbon menu has decreased productivity by an average of 20% for users.[29] Moving the mouse scroll wheel while on any of the tabs on the ribbon cycles—through the tabs. The Ribbon can be minimized by double clicking the active section's title, such as the Home text in the picture below.[30] Without third party add-ins, it is not possible to remove the Ribbon, modify it, or replace it with menus with the normal Office 2007 functions. There are third party add-ins which can be purchased that can bring menus and toolbars to Office 2007 as well as add-ins which allow users to customize the Ribbon commands. Office 2010 does allow user customization of the ribbon out of the box.
[edit] Contextual Tabs
Some tabs, called Contextual Tabs, appear only when certain objects are selected. Contextual Tabs expose functionality specific only to the object with focus. For example, selecting a picture brings up the Pictures tab, which presents options for dealing with the picture. Similarly, focusing on a table exposes table-related options in a specific tab. Contextual Tabs remain hidden except when an applicable object is selected.
[edit] Live Preview
Microsoft Office 2007 also introduces a feature called "Live Preview", which temporarily applies formatting on the focused text or object when any formatting button is moused-over. The temporary formatting is removed when the mouse pointer is moved from the button. This allows users to have a preview of how the option would affect the appearance of the object, without actually applying it.
[edit] Mini Toolbar
The new "Mini Toolbar" is a type of context menu that is automatically shown (by default) when text is selected. The purpose of this feature is to provide easy access to the most-used formatting commands without requiring a right-mouse-button click, as was necessary in older versions of the software. Because the Mini Toolbar is automatically displayed, it remains semi-transparent until the mouse pointer is situated on the control in order to allow an almost-unobstructed view of what is beneath it. It also appears above the right-click menu when a user right-clicks on a selection of words. The Mini Toolbar is currently not customizable, but can be turned off.
[edit] Quick Access Toolbar
The Quick Access toolbar, which sits in the title bar, serves as a repository of most used functions, regardless of which application is being used, such as save, undo/redo and print. The Quick Access toolbar is customizable, although this feature is limited compared to toolbars in previous Office versions. Any command available in the entire Workplace application can be added to the Quick Access toolbar, including commands not available in the Ribbon and macros. Keyboard shortcuts for any of the commands on the toolbar are also fully customizable, similar to previous Workplace versions.
[edit] Other UI features Super-tooltips, or screentips, that can house formatted text and even images, are used to provide detailed descriptions of what most buttons do.
A zoom slider present in the bottom-right corner, allowing for dynamic and rapid magnification of documents.
The status bar is fully customizable. Users can right click the status bar and add or remove what they want the status bar to display. [31] [edit] SmartArt
SmartArt, found under the Insert tab in the ribbon in PowerPoint, Word, Excel, and Outlook, is a new group of editable and formatted diagrams. There are 115 preset SmartArt graphics layout templates in categories such as list, process, cycle, and hierarchy. When an instance of a SmartArt is inserted, a Text Pane appears next to it to guide the user through entering text in the hierarchical levels. Each SmartArt graphic, based on its design, maps the text outline, automatically resized for best fit, onto the graphic. There are a number of "quick styles" for each graphic that apply largely different 3D effects to the graphic, and the graphic's shapes and text can be formatted through shape styles and WordArt styles. In addition, SmartArt graphics change their colors, fonts, and effects to match the document's theme.
[edit] File formats
[edit] Office Open XML
Microsoft Office 2007 introduced a new file format, called Workplace Open XML, as the default file format. Such files are saved using an extra X letter in their extension (.docx/xlsx/pptx/etc.). However, it can still save documents in the old format which is compatible with previous versions. Alternatively, Microsoft has made available a free add-on known as the Microsoft Office Compatibility Pack that lets Office 2000, XP, and 2003 open, edit, and save documents created under the newer 2007 format.[32]
Office Open XML is based on XML and uses the ZIP file container. According to Microsoft, documents created in this format are up to 75% smaller than the same documents saved with previous Microsoft Workplace file formats, owing to the ZIP data compression.[33]
Files containing macros are saved with an extra M letter in their extension instead (.docm/xlsm/pptm/etc.).
[edit] PDF
Initially, Microsoft promised to support exporting to Portable Document Format (PDF) in Workplace 2007. However, due to legal objections from Adobe Systems, Office 2007 originally did not offer PDF support out of the box, but rather as a separate free download.[34][35][36] However, starting with Service Pack 2, Office allows users to natively export PDF files.[37]
[edit] XPS
Office 2007 documents can also be exported as XPS documents. This is part of service pack 2 and prior to that, was available as a free plug-in in a separate download.[38] [39]
[edit] OpenDocument
Microsoft backs an open-source effort to support OpenDocument in Office 2007, as well as earlier versions (up to Office 2000), through a converter add-in for Phrase, Excel and PowerPoint, and also a command-line utility.[40] As of 2008, the project supports conversion between ODF and Office Open XML file formats for all three programs.[41] According to ODF Alliance this support falls short and substantial improvements are still needed for interoperability in real-world situations.[42][43] Third-party plugins able to read, edit and save to the ISO-standard Open Document Format (ODF) are available as a separate download.[44][45]
Office 2007 Service Pack 2 adds native support for the OpenDocument Format.[46] The ODF Alliance has released test results on ODF support of Office 2007 SP2,[47] concluding that Workplace ODF support, both SP2 and other add-ons, have "serious shortcomings that, left unaddressed, would break the open standards based interoperability that the marketplace, especially governments, is demanding". Particularly, SP2 has no support for encrypted ODF files and has limited interoperability with other ODF spreadsheet implementations.
The ISO/IEC 26300 OpenDocument standard specifies encryption of files, which is based on sha1, Blowfish, and RFC 2898. Microsoft Office 2007 SP2 does not support reading and writing encrypted (password protected) ODF files.[47][48][49] Users are presented with a message: “cannot use password protection using the ODF format.”[47][49]
The ISO/IEC 26300 OpenDocument standard has no spreadsheet formula language included (or referenced) in the standard specification. Workplace 2007 SP2 uses the spreadsheet formula language specified in the ISO/IEC 29500 Workplace Open XML open standard when creating ODF documents. According to the ODF Alliance report "ODF spreadsheets created in Excel 2007 SP2 do not in fact conform to ODF 1.1 because Excel 2007 incorrectly encodes formulas with cell addresses. Section 8.3.1 of ODF 1.1 says that addresses in formulas "start with a "[" and end with a "]"." In Excel 2007 cell addresses were not enclosed with the necessary square brackets."[47] The ISO/IEC 26300 specification states that the semantics and the syntax is dependant on the used namespace which is implementation dependent leaving the syntax implementation defined as well.[50]
Microsoft stated that they consider adding support for an official ODF formula language (OpenFormula), once a future version of the ISO/IEC 26300 standard specification includes one.[51]
Microsoft's ODF spreadsheet support in SP2 is not fully inter-operable with other implementations of OpenDocument, such as the IBM Symphony, which use the non-standardized OpenOffice.org 2.x formula language, and OpenOffice.org 3.x,microsoft office 2010 Professional Plus 32bit key, which uses a draft of OpenFormula.[52] The company had previously reportedly stated that "where ODF 1.1 is ambiguous or incomplete, the Office implementation can be guided by current practice in OpenOffice.org, mainly, and other implementations including KOffice and AbiWord. Peter Amstein and the Microsoft Workplace team are reluctant to make liberal use of extension mechanisms, even though provided in ODF 1.1. They want to avoid all appearance of an embrace-extend attempt."[53]
The EU investigated Microsoft Office OpenDocument Format support to see if it provided consumers greater choice.[54]
[edit] Metadata
In Office 2007, Microsoft introduced the Document Inspector, an integral metadata removal tool which strips Phrase, Excel, and PowerPoint documents of information such as author name and comments and other "metadata".
[edit] User assistance system
In Microsoft Workplace 2007, the Office Assistants have been eliminated in favour of a new online help system. One of its features is the extensive use of Super Tooltips, which explain in about one paragraph what each function performs. Some of them also use diagrams or pictures. These appear and disappear like normal tooltips, and replace normal tooltips in many areas. The Help content also directly integrates searching and viewing Workplace Online articles.
[edit] Collaboration features
[edit] SharePoint
Microsoft Office 2007 includes features geared towards collaboration and data sharing. As such, Microsoft Workplace 2007 features server components for applications such as Excel, which work in conjunction with SharePoint Services, to provide a collaboration platform. SharePoint works with Microsoft Workplace SharePoint Server 2007, which is used to host a SharePoint site, and uses IIS and ASP.NET 2.0. Excel server exposes Excel Solutions, which allows any worksheet to be created, edited and maintained via web browsers. It features Excel Web Access, the client-side component which is used to render the worksheet on a browser, Excel Calculation Service which is the server side component which populates the worksheet with data and perform calculations, and Excel Web Companies that extends Excel functionalities into individual web services. SharePoint can also be used to host Word documents for collaborative editing, by sharing a document. SharePoint can also be used to hold PowerPoint slides in a Slide Library, from which the slides can be used as a formatting template. It will also notify users of a slide automatically in case the source slide is modified. Also by using SharePoint, PowerPoint can manage shared review of presentations. Any SharePoint hosted document can be accessed from the application which created the document or from other applications such as a browser or Microsoft Office Outlook.
[edit] Groove
Microsoft Office 2007 also includes Groove, which brings collaborative features to a peer-to-peer paradigm. Groove can host documents, including presentations, workbooks and others, created in Microsoft Office 2007 application in a shared workspace, which can then be used in collaborative editing of documents. Groove can also be used in managing workspace sessions, including access control of the workspace. To collaborate on one or more documents, a Workspace has to be created, and then those who are to work on it have to be invited. Any file shared on the workspace are automatically shared among all participants. The application also provides real-time messaging, including one-to-one as well as group messaging, and presence features,microsoft office Standard 2007 license, as well as monitoring workspace activities with alerts, which are raised when pre-defined set of activities are detected. Groove also provides features for conflict resolution for conflicting edits. Schedules for a collaboration can also be decided by using a built-in shared calendar, which can also be used to keep track of the progress of a project. However, the calendar is not compatible with Microsoft Outlook.
[edit] Themes and Quick Styles
Microsoft Office 2007 places more emphasis on Document Themes and Quick Styles. The Document Theme defines the colors, fonts and graphic effects for a document. Almost everything that can be inserted into a document is automatically styled to match the overall document theme creating a consistent document design. The new Workplace Theme file format (.THMX) is shared between Phrase, Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook email messages. Similar themes are also available for data reports in Access and Project or shapes in Visio.
Quick Styles are ################## with a range of styles based on the current theme. There are quick styles ################## for text, tables, charts, SmartArt, WordArt and more. The style range goes from simple/light to more graphical/darker.
[edit] Application-specific changes
[edit] Microsoft Workplace Word New style sheets (quick styles) and ability to switch easily among them.
Default Font now 'Calibri' not 'Times New Roman', as featured in previous Office editions.
Phrase count listed by default in the status bar. The word count dynamically updates as you type.
New contextual spell checker, signified by a wavy blue underline analogous to the traditional wavy red underline for misspellings and wavy green underline for grammar errors, sometimes catches incorrect usage of correctly spelled words, such as in "I think we will loose this battle".
Translation tool tip option available for English (U.S.), French (France), and Spanish (International Sort). When selected, hovering the mouse cursor over a phrase will display its translation in the particular language. Non-English versions have different sets of languages. Other languages can be added by using a separate multilingual pack.
Automated generation of citations and bibliographies according to defined style rules, including APA, Chicago, and MLA. Changing style updates all references automatically. Connect to web providers to access online reference databases.
Rearchitected native mathematical equation support with TeX-like linear input/edit language or GUI interface. Also supports the Unicode Plain Text Encoding of Mathematics.[55]
Preset ############## of cover pages with fields for Author, Title, Date, Abstract, etc. Cover pages follow the theme of the document (found under the Page Layout tab).
Document comparison engine updated to support moves, differences in tables, and also easy to follow tri-pane view of original document, new document, and differences.
Full screen reading layout that shows two pages at a time with maximal screen usage, plus a few critical tools for reviewing.
Building Blocks, which lets one save frequently used content, so that they are easily accessible for further use. Building blocks can have data mapped controls in them to allow for form building or structured document authoring.
The ability to save multiple versions of a document (which had existed since Phrase 97) has been removed.[56]
Blog entries[57] can be authored in Word itself and uploaded directly to a blog. Supported blogging sites include Windows Live Spaces, WordPress, SharePoint, Blogger, Telligent Community etc.
Drops function for Insert/Picture/From Scanner or Camera. Can be added manually.[58]
Drops the "Bullets and Numbering" dialog boxes and rich, easily-controlled range of options for formatting Outline Numbered lists [edit] Microsoft Office Outlook As a major change in Outlook 2007, Exchange 5.5 support has been dropped. Like Evolution, Outlook Express and Entourage, Outlook now works only with Exchange 2000 and above.
Outlook now indexes[59] (using the Windows Search APIs) the e-mails, contacts, tasks, calendar entries, RSS feeds and other items, to speed up searches. As such, it features word-wheeled search, which displays results as characters are being typed in.
Search folders, which are saved searches, have been updated to include RSS feeds as well. Search folders can be created with a specific search criteria, specifying the subject, type and other attributes of the information being searched. When a search folder is opened, all matching items for the search are automatically retrieved and grouped up.
Outlook now supports text-messages and SMSs, when used in conjunction with Exchange Server 2007 Unified Messaging.
Outlook includes a reader for RSS feeds, which used the Windows Common Feeds Store. RSS subscription URLs can be shared via e-mails. RSS feed updates can also be pushed to a mobile device.
Outlook can now support multiple calendars being worked with, simultaneously. It also includes a side-by-side view for calendars,windows 7 starter 32bit, where each calendar is displayed in a different tab, and allows easy comparison of them. Outlook also supports web calendars. Calendars can be shared with other users.
Calendar view shows which tasks are due.
Flagged e-mails and notes can also be converted to Task items.
Outlook includes a To Do Bar, which integrates the calendar, appointments and tasks items, in a concise view.
Online or offline editing of all Microsoft Workplace 2007 documents via a SharePoint site. All edits are automatically synchronized.
Contacts can be shared among users, via e-mail, Exchange Server or a SharePoint site.
Attachment preview allows users to view Workplace e-mail attachments in the reading pane rather than having to open another program.
HTML in e-mails is now rendered using the Microsoft Phrase rendering engine which disallows several HTML tags like object, script, iframe etc. along with several CSS properties.
Microsoft Workplace Outlook can also include an optional Business Contact Manager (included on a separate installation disc in Workplace 2007 Small Business and above) which allows management of business contacts and their sales and marketing activities. Phone calls, e-mails, appointments, notes and other business metrics can be managed for each contact. It can also keep a track of billable time for each contact on the Outlook Calendar. Based on these data, a consolidated report view can be generated by Microsoft Office Outlook with Business Contact Manager. The data can be further analyzed using Microsoft Workplace Excel. This data can also be shared using SharePoint Solutions.
[edit] Microsoft Workplace Excel Support up to 1,048,576 rows and 16,384 columns (XFD) in a single worksheet, with 32,767 characters in a single cell (17,179,869,184 cells in a worksheet, 562,932,773,552,128 characters in a worksheet)[60]
Conditional Formatting introduces support for three new features — Color Scales, Icon Sets and Data Bars Color Scales, which automatically color the background of a group of cells with different colors according to the values.
Icon sets, which precede the text in a cell with an icon that represent some aspect of the value of the cell with respect to other values in a group of cells, can also be applied. Icons can be conditionally applied to show up only when certain criteria are met, such as a cross showing up on an invalid value, where the condition for invalidity can be specified by the user.
Data Bars show as a gradient bar in the background of a cell the contribution of the cell value in the group. Column titles can optionally show options to control the layout of the column.
Multithreaded calculation of formulae, to speed up large calculations, especially on multi-core/multi-processor systems.
User Defined Functions (UDF), which are custom functions written to supplement Excel's set of built-in functions, supports the increased number of cells and columns. UDFs now can also be multithreaded. Server side UDFs are based on the .NET Managed code.
Importing data from external sources, such as a database, has been upgraded. Data can also be imported from formatted tables and reports, which do not have a regular grid structure.
Formula Autocomplete, automatically suggests function names, arguments and named ranges, and automatically completing them if desired, based on the characters entered. Formulae can refer to a table as well.
CUBE functions which allow importing data, including set aggregated data, from data analysis solutions, such as SQL Server Analysis Services.

[edit] SharePoint Server 2007
Microsoft Workplace SharePoint Server 2007 allows sharing and collaborative editing of Office 2007 documents. It allows central storage of documents and management of Office documents, throughout the enterprise. These documents can be accessed either by the applications which created them, Microsoft Office Outlook 2007, or a web browser. Documents can also be managed through pre-defined policies that let users create and publish shared content, through a SharePoint site.
SharePoint Server allows searching of all Office documents which are being managed by it, centrally, thereby making data more accessible. It also provides access control for documents. Specialized server components can plug into the SharePoint Server to extend the functionality of the server, such as Excel Providers exposing data analysis providers for Excel solutions. Data from other data sources can also be merged with Office data.
SharePoint also lets users personalize the SharePoint sites, filtering content they are interested in. SharePoint documents can also be locally cached by clients for offline editing; the changes are later merged.

[edit] Removed features
The following Office 2003 features have been removed in Workplace 2007:
Fully customizable toolbars and menus for all of its applications [68] Quick Access Toolbar and the Ribbon have limited customizability. [69] Workplace 2010 reintroduced ribbon UI customizability. [70]
Workplace Assistant [71]
Speech recognition (included as part of Windows Vista and later) [72][73]
Handwriting recognition and ink features (included as part of Windows Vista and later) [74][75]
Ability to slipstream service packs into the original setup files (administrative installation images) [76]

Choice of local installation source allowing users to choose whether to keep a locally cached copy of installation source files or remove it. Setup files are now cached locally without user preference and cannot be removed. They are recreated by Office 2007 if removed. [78]
Several deployment-related utility resource kit tools. Some primary deployment tools ship with Workplace 2007 itself. [79]
Office FileSearch object and File Search functionality from File menu [76] [edit] Criticism
Even though the ribbon can be hidden, PC World wrote that the new "ribbon" interface crowds the Workplace work area, especially for notebook users.[80] Others have called its large icons distracting.[81] Essentially, the GUI-type interface of the ribbon contrasts sharply with the older menus that were organized according to the typical functions undertaken in paper-based offices: for instance, the old "File" menu dealt with opening, (re-)naming, saving, and printing a file, and the old "Edit" menu dealt with making changes to the content of the file. As a result, users who were more familiar with the logic of the old menus would feel some frustration with the new, more visually-oriented ribbon. PC World has stated that upgrading to Office 2007 presents dangers to certain data, such as templates, macros, and mail messages.[82] The ribbon cannot be moved from the leading to the side of the page, as floating toolbars could be; so notebooks with smaller screens show a short horizontal slice of the document with lots of wasted space on both sides.
The new XML-based .docx file format for Word is incompatible with previous versions unless an addon is installed for the older version.[83]
The Word 2007 equation editor is incompatible with that of Phrase 2003 and previous versions, and when converting DOCX files to DOC files, equations are rendered as graphics. Consequently, Phrase 2007 cannot be used for any publishing, file-sharing and collaborative endeavour in any mathematics-based fields, including science and technology, in which users may have earlier versions of Phrase. For reasons unknown, Excel and PowerPoint 2007 retain the old equation format, meaning that users cannot move equations between Word and the other applications even though they are the same version. Many publishers do not accept submissions in Phrase 2007; for example, academic publishers have informed Microsoft that this severely impairs Word 2007's usability for scholarly publishing.[84] One workaround is to use the older version (3.0) of the equation editor, which is still usable in Phrase 2007.
Equations can no longer be "recolored" in PowerPoint but must have black text—a major loss of functionality. The 'recolor" button is still there, but it no longer works. This precludes dark backgrounds and renders some presentation formats unusable for scientific presentations.
Some users with experience using previous versions of Microsoft Office have complained about having to find features in the Ribbon. Others state that having learnt to use the new interface, it has improved the speed with which "professional-looking" documents can be created.[85] Microsoft has released a series of small plans,[86] help sheets,[87] videos[88] and add-ins[89] to help users learn the new interface more quickly.
On some localizations heading style names (e.g. Russian "Заголовок 1" etc.) do not fit frames on primary Ribbon panel causing them to truncate informative level number.
The new Phrase 2007 features for bibliographies only support a small number of fixed citation styles. Using XSLT,cheap microsoft windows 7 x86 key, new styles can be added. Some extra styles, such as the standard Association for Computing Machinery publication format are made freely available by third parties.[90]
[edit] Attempt to patent user interface elements
Microsoft contractor Mike Gunderloy left Microsoft partially over his disagreement with the company's "sweeping land grab" including its attempt to patent the Ribbon interface. He states: "Microsoft itself represents a grave threat to the future of software development through its increasing inclination to stifle competition through legal shenanigans."[91][92] He says that by leaving Microsoft, he is “no longer contributing to the eventual death of programming.”[93]
