Word X includes components such as toolbars and navigation buttons that are redesigned for greater readability and to help you quickly move from one feature to the next. New icons have been added, using anti-aliased graphics for a cleaner appearance, and these icons have Aqua-enabled mouse-overs for enhanced usability. And just like Mac OS X, Word X uses animation to improve discoverability.
