Microsoft Office 12 beta release in November?
The final release is slated for the second half of next year. An initial developer beta version is expected to be available this fall. According to the latest rumours Office 12 beta may even ship in November.
This week, Microsoft announced that, with the next version of Office, it will support saving files to Adobe's Portable Document Format, or PDF.
In this new version of office, users will immediately notice big changes to the look of Office programs, particularly Word, Excel and PowerPoint.
The keystone of the new user interface is a "ribbon" of frequently used commands that offers different options, depending on the task a user is performing. In addition to the new user interface, Microsoft has outlined several other areas of improvement, including enhancements to individual productivity, cooperation and management of corporate business documents.
