Converting Existing PPT to SWWC Template

  • To convert an existing PPT to the SWWC template, do the following:
    1. Download and open the SWWC Template.
    2. Open the PPT file with the existing slides.
    3. In the left sidebar/thumbnail pane, choose the slides you want to use.
    4. Copy the slides (Ctrl-C).
    5. Switch to the new file and, under paste options, choose "Use Destination Theme".
    6. All the copied slides will be inserted into the new PPT.
    7. Go through each slide and apply whichever slide layout works best for your presentation. 
    8. When creating a brand new PPT, always start with the SWWC Template.

Using Word Templates

  • Use templates to create letters, agendas and other documents. 
    • Always start with the Word Template when you create a new document.
    • When a template is opened, a new document is created.
    • Select "Save As" to name the file and save it as a Word document.
    • Do not re-save it as a Word Template.
    • If you copy/paste text into the document, paste it as plain text so it takes on the formatting of the template.
    • Logos are placed in the headers/footers and appear light in color. 
    • When finished, always save the document as a PDF to ensure the logo displays correctly.
