Bangalore: Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer unveiled the latest edition of Microsoft Office on Monday in San Francisco. It is said to be the most ambitious update release of the Software. The Office Suite applications have been redesigned to make the most of Windows 8 operating system, work with mobile devices and operate in the cloud. Let’s take a look on the top 12 features of the new Microsoft Office:
