Okay, so that mean that for the user of Word 2010 I have to save a .dotx template and distribute it togheter with the theme I crated?!
Will the document chose the theme by itself if it is installed, or do the users have to chose it every time the use my template?

But they also have users of Word 2000!
Therefore I also need to distribute a separate .dot template for them.
How do I make sure that these users of older versions get the right set-up of colours and fonts? (I need to to the work from my Word 2010).

Fonts:
I got problem to embed the font in the document but that is an other thread:
https://www.msofficeforums.com/word/...t-advance.html
But if we ignore that for the moment, I have created paragraph formats and used them in my dummy-text so that will work.
But I also want the default fonts to be correct if the customer got the idea to make a new textbox or accidentally delete my dummy-text. How do I do that for the .dot document?



Colors:
The company has a set-up of 10 colours that I included in the color-theme but I haven't actually used them in the document. How do I get the .dot document to show my created colour-scheme as default if the user wants to colour something?

Thanx in advance!

The settings stored in the template will be used when new documents are created from that template. So if the styles in your template have the appropriate settings, there shouldn't be a problem.

As long as you don't want users to apply a theme, you don't have to distribute it.

I actually don't want them to chose a theme, I hoped the theme could be pre-chosen and included in the document but I realise that isn't the case.

In my reply to Charles, you can tell that my problem is to include the colour scheme in the template.
When the user want to colour a text, a line or something else, I want it to be the companys colours that turn up to chose from.
How do I do that (if it can be done) ?
