Choose How You Want to Distribute Documents

You have three options for distributing a document online.

Send a document   Choose this method when you need to distribute a document quickly, you have a specific list of reviewers, and you want review comments quickly.

Route a document   Choose this method when you have a longer review period, a short list of reviewers, and you want each reviewer to see the comments of previous reviewers.

Post a document   Choose this method when you want to provide wide distribution of a document, such as a company policy manual, or when you’re not sure who might need or want to review it.

Want to Distribute Information to a Wider Audience?

If you want to distribute information online to your entire company, or to anyone outside your company, use the Web toolbar to create files that you can publish on the World Wide Web. For more information, see Office and the Web.

What if your audience doesn’t use Office?   Office has free document viewers that let your online readers view and print files in their native format, without installing the full application. These viewers are free and can be downloaded from a software page that you access by clicking Microsoft on the Web (Help menu).
