Organizations have been developing intranets allowing users to publish and share projects in a Web work space, and Word 2000 has pushed these possibilities to a new level, allowing publishing of these projects without having to learn all new controls and methods. Some of the enhancements include the ability to preserve all HTML code, even if Word does not understand it, instead of losing or destroying uncomprehended code and associated tags. Also new is the ability to import and export HTML encodings. Now, turn off features that are not supported in older browsers to make displaying a page much easier for them. Themes are now available, making consistent Web pages a more realistic task than ever before, by allowing co-ordination between Word 2000 and creation of Web pages.
Developers can now create and view Frames more accurately, with new and more powerful tools.
Also new to Word 2000 is the ability to customize e-mail by choosing personalized font settings, backgrounds and themes. Also new is Print Zoom. Here a user can scale pages at print time regardless of paper sizes. Personalize menus based on what is used most, without having to wade through less-used features as in earlier versions. Word 2000 can now use pixels and percentages of a page as alternate units of measurements, and supports 24-bit colors to set text, borders and shadings in any color.
