Customer wants a document template for reports. The reports will be printed and read both externally and internally.
The user shall be able to:
- chose from 6 different colours for the coverpage and some styles
- the list bullet (but not the bullet text) shall be green if the green theme is chosen, etc
- and also the background for a "textpad" shall be coloured. "Textpad" shall be used if the writer want to highlite something. (Solution: Frame or textbox)
- and some more
In short: There shall be six templates in either green, red, blue, etc. (Mixed colours are not OK)
Now: I have checked out Shauna (The Guru) and also googled around for more info.
My conclusion is:
Make six different templates (starting with one and reusing most of it for the others)
Front page picture put in the top margin of the FrontPage, covering all and then a new section for rest of the document.
I was hoping I could use colour themes... but the Frontpage picture wouldnt follow, right?
I do not think it is a good solution to ask the writer to include the FrontPage having to choose from six different.
Is there a better way?
An answer within an hour would be great, but also after that is worth a lot.
Looking forward to hear from you!
