Office 2007 brings radical changes to Microsoft Word including a new user interface, a new XML-based file format, and a new math editor. These changes present many new benefits and opportunities, but they also bring significant challenges for editorial and production operations that have built workflows around earlier versions of Word. In this session, representatives from publishers, Microsoft, and the scholarly publishing vendor community explained the changes and discussed the issues that directly affect scholarly publishers.
