There's no way in hell myself and the other designer could do all of that. My company creates thousands of documents for a variety of purposes. Just give them a way to stay within the brand using tools they're comfortable with and leave it at that. Things created by a client in Word or Publisher aren't going into your portfolio, but that's okay. You're not going to get everything to fall onto a grid system perfectly but you can work around that.
Find a way to make default system typefaces work. Design within it's limits- forget about bleeds, just design with a 1/4-3/8in white border. But a well thought out template for Word, Publisher or Powerpoint can often serve their needs well. It's not fair to expect them to purchase and learn InDesign. Sometimes you need to enable the client to do basic work on their own that still fits within your brand.
#HATE WORD VS WORD HATE PROFESSIONAL#
No, they're not professional design tools and they aren't trying to be. They actually serve an important purpose that I think designers need to be more open to. Now that I've been doing this for awhile, I'm coming to terms with these programs. Then one day I was a fresh, new designer and absolutely despised all MS Office products. There was a time I thought Word, Publisher and PowerPoint were awesome. Lock the graphics in position using page anchors (not inside text or paragraphs), and tell people to NEVER mess with the template on pain of death. Synonyms hate to dislike someone or something very much dislike to not like someone or something bear if you cannot bear someone or something, you dislike. What I have learned (other than to avoid as much as possible working in Microsoft Office) is to make the designs as simple as possible (don't make 10MB background graphics), make a template file, and make a regular non template file, and keep a pristine version hidden in about 10 places in the company to restore a version that someone completely screwed up. Brigham Young University said there is no evidence to corroborate allegations of racial slurs directed toward a black Duke volleyball player during last week’s BYU-Duke match. You could hear my screams of frustration in the parking lot. I have PTSD from working on proposals that consisted of merging Word files from 10 different subject matter experts - every one of which had decided to change normal.dot. We were constantly asked to supply stuff in Word, which could not maintain formatting (especially of paragraph numbering). When I was a technical writer, we used FrameMaker (now owned by Adobe) to produce our user manuals. hate somebody/something to do something I'd hate anything to. hate somebody/something doing something He hates anyone parking in his space. For example, its a hate crime if someone assaulted you and used homophobic language or threw a brick through your window and wrote racist graffiti on your. I hate to think what would have happened if you hadn't been there. She's a person who hates to make mistakes. Nondesigners like Word and PowerPoint because they think they can still maintain some sort of control over the document. hate to do something He hated to be away from his family. Wait until you run into people who use PowerPoint as graphics software.
