Word would definitely not work when you want multi coloured graphics. I suppose you need to have different layers for different colours, which Word cannot do.

If its a one time job, I suggest you should download a trial version of Photoshop and Illustrator, which you can use it for 30 days.

Cheers.

Adobe - Photoshop CS3, Photo Editing Software, Digital Image Editor


US$649

If you're a student, you can probably get it much cheaper from your local university/college tech shop.
