Standard document layout
Hello,
I have been tasked with taking old documents and bringing them into the current document standards. These documents are everything from typewritten papers that I am using OCR software to save myself the typing, to relatively recent documents that have been written in Word, but the skill of the person writing the report varies widely, from people who will use macros to people who will bend the document any way they can tosee it the wayy they want. Would creating a document templete, that has the standard information like heading layouts and section breaks be the best way to go to save us some time as we bring these documents into the standard layout? It is extremely frustrating to try and "fix" the original document and have strange things like page numbering and TOC issues arising over and over again. I was thinking by clearing all the formatting in the source document, and then copying and pasting into the standard template layout, we could make the documents all look and behave the same way. Does this sound like the best way to go about this? I am dealing with 100+ documents to bring up to date. Thanks |
