Word Publisher / Overview

Word Publisher is a native Microsoft Word add-in that enables users to build live and dynamic reports and publish organisational documents such as Annual Reports, Financial Reports, Management Reports and Executive Presentations easily and efficiently by utilising existing/preconfigured Excel/Excel Publisher reports.

Users can then use Microsoft Words functionality like cover pages, table to contents, headers and footers, texts, and images to produce a published document. We can switch over reports from portrait to landscape mode and in addition you can use the charts and tables that come from Excel.

The publisher panel (located on the right-hand side) is embedded into Microsoft Word and displays a list of Excel reports that the user can drag and drop into the word document.
