How to Use the Newsletter Templates

These newsletter templates use paragraph styles in Word (title, subtitle, quote, etc.). This let's you quickly drop in your own content and then apply the appropriate paragraph style to have your newsletter looking great in very little time. The first template is black and white, making it both ink-friendly as well as photocopy friendly. The second newsletter template uses more blocks of color as well as color for text elements to have a more vibrant design that stands out. You'll notice even more possibilities when using Microsoft Word themes with the second template. Both templates also include headers and footers that repeat from page to page, with auto-generated page numbers.

  1. Before importing your own text, it can be very helpful to click on the different elements in the example text to see what paragraph styles are being used.
  2. Update the information in the header and footer for your newsletter.
  3. Delete the example content and then import your own.
  4. Apply the paragraph styles to all the elements of your content.
  5. Experiment with the themes to find the desired look and feel you want.
  6. You can print the final version and photocopy it, or save it as a PDF and distribute it via email.
  7. Please do not remove the TotalSheets attribution!
