: Tips on creating Microsoft Office 2011 Templates/Themes? I'm attempting to create some basic branded templates in Microsoft Office (Word and PowerPoint) to be deployed for office use. Just some
I'm attempting to create some basic branded templates in Microsoft Office (Word and PowerPoint) to be deployed for office use. Just some colours, and basic typography hierarchy so people can easily create quick documents themselves.
It seems that in order to create a theme for Word, you have to make one in PowerPoint - however it seems in Microsoft Office 2011 for Mac you can only create colour themes, not font themes (not supported for some reason).
Has anyone tried to create some themes for Microsoft Office 2011, and have any tips on how to approach this, or some workarounds for this?

If you do much of this, check out "Building PowerPoint Templates" by Swinford and Terberg. It's available on Amazon and from Que directly; other places as well, I imagine. It's primarily Windows-oriented but they do explain the Mac side of things somewhat. You may find that it's simpler to develop templates/themes under Windows PPT, then test them on Mac.
I'm not a Microsoft Word expert but the text stylesheet I use are in the "Toolbox", and if you click on each style, you will see that you can add it to the template.
My screenshot is with the "legacy" style (I prefer it) but I guess you can figure out where that toolbox on the recent interface instead!
