Perhaps these problems should be sent to the Word group?
I'd rather try here first.
I created a Word and Frame template/style guide.
The problem is with the Word template. We (read I) don't know how to instruct people here on how to use it for existing documents. I told my manager, who is testing it, to use the style organizer to bring over the template styles. What she wound up with was a mess of styles - some but not all of those in my template, some I had earlier created for her in the existing document she tested.
How can I instruct others to use template styles on existing document?
Thanks so much.
