2007 themes can't be changed once the file is saved as Word 97-200
Hi - I've come across a frustration you may be able to help me get past.
I have a heavily formatted document using styles in a way that showed off how themes can change it live, using the Theme selector (Page Layout=Themes). I (accidentally) saved it as Word 97-2003 file format, and despite saving it again back in Word 2007 format, the doc's theme now can't be changed. I created another doc to test how themes break when saved in Word '97-2003 format, using lots of styles. I saved one copy as Word 2007, and another in Word '97-2003 format, then opening both and examining the styles with the Style Inspector (Home=Styles=Styles 'launcher' (arrow/square at bottom-right of Styles group)='Style Inspector' (from the middle icon at the bottom of that work pane.) The only difference I could see between the two docs is in the Font style - the 2003 format version explicitly names the font -- "(Default( Candara 14 pt Bold ...", while the Word 2007 version references a style -- "(Default) +Heading 14 pt Bold ..." Even if I re-apply a style (like "Heading 1") from the style selector (Home=Styles='Heading 1"), I *still* can't use the Theme selector. So, my question is this: Can I rescue my heavily formatted document? How do I change the explicit font names to style references? Can I even un-set the explicit font name? Thanks! Charles. |
