Ok I think that the first thing the user should do is learn about the certain things the user wants to accomplish for the canvas. Each tool he wants to use should be looked at and kind of memorized of where each one is for faster notice when needed. The user should also have the edit and review tab at his or her disposal to adjust any wrong that they may come across. This allows a faster fix and less time wasted. Another thing is the short-cuts the person should think about like cutting out things when needed and inserting things in spots where it needs to be. A border is something very unique about Microsoft Word because it gives presentations a look of professionalism that brings something to the table of other business men and women to look at instead of it being plain and dull. The ribbon can be your best friend in faster access to anything you may need plus it’s almost like a bar line and won’t get I your way of anything you. Another handy tool would be helpful can be the snipping tool which can cut any object and position it in any position you may want. In the mix when you need color, the color fill effects are available but it would be wise to locate that before you finish your canvas to complete it. Overall locating everything in Microsoft Word before you tackle something like a canvas should be a learning experience and once you done one, you can always find it again with less trouble and time.
