you're already using a theme in your
word documents even if you don't know it
the default office theme is where this
color palette comes from also your theme
fonts and last but not least shape
styles how are themes different from
styles while Styles actually pull from
the theme to give you different
combinations to choose from like
coordinated titles and headings themes
are what determine the overall look
making it possible to change the tone of
your document entirely let me show you
what I mean let's go to the page Layout
tab themes and then mouse over for a
preview as you can see the styles and
theme elements I've used are changing
including typeface color even the
clipart I edited using the theme color
palette this is one of my favorites keep
in mind applying a different theme will
only work if you take advantage of what
they have to offer including theme fonts
colors and shape styles other colors and
fonts that you've chosen yourself won't
reflect the change let's say you like
the fonts from one theme but the color
scheme from another you can actually mix
and match themes to customize your
document to change the color scheme
click the icon here and either choose
from the list or go to create new theme
colors to create something of your own I
happen to like the colors from this
theme here just the way they are if
changing the font is more what you had
in mind
click the icon just below the color
palette once again you can create
something new or choose from the list
last this little icon lets you swap out
the shape style some themes even have a
picture or a pattern for the fill color
like this one I think I want something
brighter like this
actually like this theme a lot it's
different it's fun I'm going to go ahead
and save it so I can use it again all
you have to do is go to themes save
current theme and give it a name all set
now I can apply my theme to any of my
other documents themes are such a great
way to experiment with color design and
the overall look and feel of your
document with so many ways to customize
you can really make it your own like
