You made the right choice twice: Microsoft Office for Mac and this book.

Take a deep breath and get ready to have a rollicking good time. Thats right this is a computer book, but its fun. What a concept! Whether youre brand-spanking new to the Office suite or a grizzled Office veteran, we guarantee that reading this book to discover the ins and outs of Office for Mac is fun and easy.

Why write a For Dummies book about Office for Mac? Well, Office for Mac is a big, somewhat complicated suite of productivity applications, so we made Office 2021 For Macs For Dummies a not-so-big, not-so-complicated book that shows you how to perform the most common tasks youre likely to perform using Office for Mac, all without boring you to tears, confusing you, or poking you with sharp objects.

In fact, we think youll be so darned comfortable that we wanted the title to be Office For Macs without Discomfort, the Very Comfortable 2021 Edition, but the publisher wouldnt allow it. Apparently, we For Dummies authors have to follow some rules, and using For Dummies and Office For Macs in this books title are among them.

Speaking of dummies, we dont think youre dumb quite the opposite! Our second choice for this books title was Office For Macs For People Smart Enough to Know That They Need Help Using It, but you can just imagine what the Wiley folks thought of that. (Cmon, thats the whole point of the name! they insisted. Besides, its shorter this way.)

Anyway, the book is chock-full of information and advice, explaining everything you need to know about Office for Mac in language you can understand along with giving you timesaving tips, tricks, techniques, and step-by-step instructions, all served up in generous quantities.

Although we know what happens when you make assumptions, weve made a few, anyway. First, we assume that you, gentle reader, know nothing about using Office beyond knowing what it is, that you want to use it, that you want to understand it without digesting an incomprehensible technical manual, and that you made the right choice by selecting this particular book.

And so we do our best to explain each new concept in full and loving detail. Maybe thats foolish, but, so be it.

Oh, and we also assume that you can read. If you cant, just ignore this paragraph.

Little round pictures (icons) appear to the left side of the text throughout this book. Consider these icons miniature road signs, telling you a little something extra about the subject at hand. Heres what the different icons look like and what they all mean:

Look for Tip icons to find the juiciest morsels: shortcuts, tips, and undocumented secrets about Office for Mac. Try them all and impress your friends!
