MS Word -- Executive Edition

Executives and CEOs lose hours every day formatting their documents.

And this sick trend is only growing worse.

Documentosis Affects Everyone

All too often, office-johnnies and cubicle-janes are called upon by CEOs to rescue sick documents.

Moribund documents whose basic formatting has been tortured, corrupted and pillaged for the loathsome pleasure of a fiddling CEO.

Alignment, margins, layout, spelling, formatting: no property is safe from the tweakings of these control-freak apex-predators.

And just as vampirism predominates at night, so Documentosis builds to a climax in the hours that precede a board meeting.

But there is hope...

The new Executive Edition of Microsoft Word aims to address this disease.

MS Word Executive Edition provides the power your CEO needs for writing:

• Mission Statements
• Corporate Mottos
• Memoranda

Without the gimmickry of:

• Headers and footers
• Print preview
• Margins
• 'bold', 'italic' and 'underlining'
• Numbered lists
• Spell check
• Thesaurus
• Tables

Once a CEO has completed her Executive Document, it can be emailed to a specialist trained to use the regular features of Word without causing Documentosis. The document specialist can then perform improve spelling, applying company templates and down-play egotistical statements.

Licensing restrictions mean that MS Word Executive Edition is only available for CEO's and top-level decision makers.

Best of luck, office-johnnies and cubicle-janes!
