Instructions: How to Use the Templates (Macintosh)

2

* Downloading Fonts (Mandatory) The first step, before downloading any templates, is to download all of the University’s fonts. This will ensure that the templates display correctly. To purchase Trajan and Myriad visit: Linotype.com, veer.com, fonts.com or store.adobe.com/type All other University fonts can be found at: Fontsquirrel.com * Note: If you fail to download these fonts there will be serious errors with the layout. Replacing Text To replace text, simply click on one of the text boxes, highlight the placeholder text and then replace it with your own. Make sure to either replace or delete all placeholder text that comes with the template.

Headlines Headlines should not exceed the allotted space. If your headline is too long, please do not adjust the font size. Instead, try and narrow down a shorter, more concise version of the headline for a quicker, more effective read. Body Text Body text should not exceed the allotted space either. If it does not fit, please shorten it for a quicker read. Replacing Pictures Notice every picture has “For Placeholder Only” watermarked across it. This means you must replace every picture with one of the stock images provided or one of your own so long as it is good enough quality. To do this, right-click the image you wish to change and click on “Change Picture.” Most likely you will have to re-crop the image.

Cropping If the photo needs to be re-cropped, you can find Microsoft Word’s crop feature under the “Format Picture” tab. You must have the picture selected to see the tab. Adding Additional Logos Certain templates have space for additional logos. The space where this is possible is marked. Please delete the box itself and add a logo or two as you see fit. Please make sure the clear space guidelines are followed. The “Additional Logos Here” box should still be deleted even if you have no logos to add. Using the Styles Pane All the necessary styling for text is provided in the styles pane. Simply click the styles icon shown on the right to open it. To style text, highlight the portion you wish to style and click on the desired style in the pane. * Note: Styles with white text will show as a blank box. Hover your mouse over it for a description.
