  • Question
    What is the difference between Microsoft Word and Microsoft Publisher?
    Community Answer
    Microsoft Word is the classic word processing program. It is used mainly for text-focused purposes - writing books, essays, letters, resumes, etc. Microsoft Publisher is meant for communications with a more visual emphasis, like flyers, brochures, newsletters, marketing materials, etc. While it is possible to create in Word most of what you can create in Publisher, it can be more difficult and time-consuming because the program isn't set up for such things by default and there may be more tweaking and customizing you have to do. It does have some templates that can help, and for casual users, that's enough. But for businesses or people who create visually oriented materials on a regular basis, it is generally worth it to have a full-fledged program like Microsoft Publisher (or more popularly, Adobe InDesign) dedicated to that.
