Create an Ezine Type Document

My leaders want us to create our training manuals in an ezine format. We want them to be available in our Learning Managment system, not via the Internet. We have Windows 7 and Office 2013.

I know I can create a magazine/book format in Word. But can I include the navigation (forward, back, print, save) ezines have? Or the page turning effect?

Thank you,

Marnee

    I don't want to give you a flat "no" for an answer, but Word really wasn't designed to do that kind of work. The experience would be time-consuming and frustrating, and the documents would be hard to maintain. You could probably cobble together the navigation links, but the page turning effect won't be possible in Word.

    Instead, look into software that is specifically intended for the job: http://www.google.com/search?q=software+for+creating+ezine. 

    You can certainly write the text for your manuals in Word for ease of editing, and then paste the final version into the ezine software.

    Thanks, Jay. I thought that might be the case, and I appreciate your confirmation. I'll continue you software search. I want to be sure I can publish on our LMS and not the internet.
