CORPORATE TEMPLATES USER GUIDE In Microsoft Word

May 2017 This version of the guide Brand 2017 Edition will be revised soon.

This guide provides an overview of the Word templates that have been installed on your computers to produce documents compliant with our Brand Guidelines. It also gives instructions on how to best use the template system features, assuming that it has been rolled out in your region. Please contact your local marketing team for more details on this matter. Illustrations used in this guide were captured using international size standard (ISO 216) co-branded templates but the information also applies to templates made for North American paper sizes. Also note that template layouts presented here may be slightly different from region-specific templates that were adapted to accommodate regional requirements and best practices. This guide will be updated on a regular basis to stay in sync with new features that will progressively appear in your corporate templates. Useful tip: For easy browsing, the Table of Contents can be clicked to jump to a featured subject. Page footer arrows will take you back to the Table of Contents. Underlined words will also take you to specific places in the document. Likewise, you can click on buttons in the illustrated ribbon tabs to navigate to their full definition and usage.

For any questions regarding the use of these templates, or to report any problem, please contact your local super user.

Template Tab USING

Styles

STYLE SETTINGS Styles are saved sets of formatting options that are used to keep documents consistent. Each heading and Home tab – Quick Style Gallery paragraph has a specific style. These styles should not be altered and new ones should not be added.

RIBBON TEMPLATE TAB On the Template tab, all corporate templates feature buttons to apply most styles used for the specific type of document.

Styles pane Dropdown arrow QUICK STYLE GALLERY The Quick Style Gallery on the Home tab has been Styles Pane button edited so only Styles used in the template are shown. On some monitors, you may need to click on the dropdown arrow to view them all. Since Office 2010, the Quick Style Gallery shows a real-time preview directly in the document when placing your cursor over a given style.

STYLES PANE Click on the small Styles pane button below the toolbar. Note: This is not the same arrow as mentioned for the Quick Styles Gallery. This displays a window listing all styles available in the document. You can dock this pane to the left or right side of the Word window by dragging it to the edge of the window. Ticking Show Preview checkbox enables preview of all styles proposed for the template (recommended for quick use) as shown opposite.

Keyboard shortcuts CTRL-SHIFT-N Normal STYLESHEET CTRL-ALT-T Body Text For quick formatting, use keyboard shortcuts to CTRL-ALT-1 to 6 Heading 1 to 6 apply most common styles (See list on the left). CTRL-ALT-L List Bullet CTRL-ALT-N List Number Pointing your mouse over the buttons on the Template tab also displays their respective keyboard shortcuts. CTRL-ALT-E Emphasis 2 Note: Formatting of the styles can be different from one template to another. 1 Normal (not shown), in most templates, it is used only as base style for all headings that appear in Montserrat font. 2 Body text is the style in use everywhere for narrative text and is the base style for list styles that appear in Gentium font. It has 6 pt or 12 pt spacing before and after each paragraph. It is always left aligned. Left alignment is part of corporate branding so free text should never be 3 justified. 4 3 Headings 1 to 6. Most templates use headings 1 to 6 for hierarchical organization of sections or chapters. Heading 1 may or may not start on a separate page. If you prefer to start each chapter on a new page, modify the style Heading 1 by ticking Page Break Before checkbox in the Paragraph window. Numbering is automatic for headings 1, 2, 3 and 4 in some of the templates. On the Template tab, all heading styles are grouped under the Headings dropdown list. 4 List Bullet. This style has three predefined levels of indent. Styles such as Bullet 1, Bullet 2, and such should never be used. Having different kinds of bullets in a single document increases the chances of unpredictable behavior of the format like sudden and unwanted changes in paragraph settings (indent, margin, etc.).

10 – TEMPLATE USER GUIDE

To change the indent level on a bullet, press TAB (and SHIFT-TAB to decrease indent). You can also use the Increase Indent and Decrease Indent buttons on the Template tab. IMPORTANT: Never use default Bullets and Numbering buttons on Home tab. 5 5 List Number. This style can be used when a client 6 needs numbered paragraphs or when presenting a numbered list. Indent levels work the same way as List Bullets. 6 List Paragraph. This style is used when you want to 7 insert a paragraph aligned with text in List Bullet or List Number styles. 7 Emphasis. This is a character style that displays selected text in bold . 8 Table 1. This is a table style. It does not appear in 8 the Styles pane, nor in Quick Style Gallery, but on the Template tab. To use it, you must click inside a 9 table first. Table 1 is listed in the Design tab and is the default table style. Table styles set their font, borders and shading properties. Corporate custom tables sometimes don’t have vertical borders. To make tables with multiple columns easier to read, tick Banded Columns checkbox on the Template tab or in the Design tab Table Style Options to add shading to the odd-number columns. Alternately, you can deactivate First Column at the same location. 9 Caption. Use to insert captions for tables or images inside the main document.

11 – TEMPLATE USER GUIDE

To insert a caption, you must right-click the table, image or map and select Insert Caption. The type of label will determine in which table the object will be listed (Table, Figure, etc.). By default, Map is not listed so you have to click on New Label to create it for your document. Most people prefer to include chapter numbers in the caption – See dialog boxes on the left. You also have the option to place the caption above or under the object. Be consistent throughout your document. When the caption is inserted, press TAB and insert the caption text after its number. 10 Special text. This style is used to outline important quotes, excerpts, etc. Most other styles appearing in the Styles pane are designed for single use such as different styles used in the inside cover, page footer, etc. They should not be used for other purposes.

APPLYING STYLES WITH FORMAT PAINTER This option should be avoided altogether. It yields unpredictable results when it comes to headings or bullets and can generate formatting errors that are difficult to fix.

12 – TEMPLATE USER GUIDE

PICTURE Insertion In templates, photos are placeholder images. You must substitute images that are more representative of the project you are working on. PROJECT DATASHEETS To change images in project sheets and CVs, delete and insert new photo in the table cell. Wrapping style for these images is In line with text. By default, project sheet and CV tables have columns of fixed width. This means that photos wider than the cells will be automatically resized. Photos of smaller size must be stretched. In this case, grab the corner of the image and slide it until it fills the width of the cell. The cell can also be stretched to accommodate bigger landscape pictures. However, the width of the cell should not exceed 2/3 of the total table width to leave enough room for the data on the right. OTHER IMAGES Images on covers and dividers are also In line with text and placed in table cells. In dividers, you need to access headers and footers first. To replace an image, right-click it and select Change picture... Adjust size and crop if necessary. IMAGE SIZE To minimize file size, make sure that when resizing your pictures, you set resolution at 150 ppi. You can also compress images in Word. When you select an image, you can click Compress Pictures button in Picture Tools tab and apply settings illustrated to the left. These settings are sufficient for any office printer. Only third-party commercial printers are precise enough to make a notable difference.

STATIONERY 2 Templates

ENVELOPE TEMPLATE The template only uses the Normal Style. Creating different styles for sender’s (1) and recipient’s (2) addresses was considered unnecessary since it is 1 sufficient to simply format the Normal style. If you print on a regular envelope already pre-printed with a logo and address, you do not need the header content. So after accessing page header, you must select all (CTRL-A) and delete. The Escape key will quickly get you back to the main document. You do not need the template for pre-printed windowed since the destination address is printed on the letter and viewed through the window.

FRONT COVER Most of the information on cover page is inserted by the Document Details feature. Please see section about this page.

INSIDE COVER Like the front cover, most of the information on cover page is inserted by the Document Details feature. Note: If you have chosen to use the windowed covers, the above information will appear through the front cover. It is important NOT to resize or move the table cell containing this information. Both in the front and inside cover, it may occur that long titles will cause the page to overflow. If that is that case, you can reduce the size of the fonts until the text fits.

PRESENTATION LETTER Most regions include, in their reports, a presentation or an introduction letter. Please refer to the section on Letterhead templates for further details.

INTRO PAGES

These pages, not being part of the body of the report, are located right before the Table of Contents. Any of these pages can be deleted by selecting the page from top to bottom, including the section break at the end.

Quality Management Optional. Used to list report versions when many of them are issued to a client. Serves as quality control and is usually removed in final version.

Signatures Traditionally, placeholders for signature were set on the inside cover. Quite often, more than one signature is required for certification on different levels (production, review, approval, etc.). Additional blocks can be copied and pasted on the page. If they do not fit all in one page vertically, consider using two columns. Select the text right below the Signatures heading down to the end of the page and then, use the Columns button, in the Page Setup group of the Page Layout tab of the ribbon. This page is also the only one subsection of either the presentation letter or, if the latter is deleted, of the inside cover. Note: In regions where disclaimers must be included, they should appear right below the signatures.

Production Team Optional. Mostly used to draft a list of people involved in the project.

TABLE OF CONTENTS AND OTHER TABLES

This section contains two parts: the regular table of contents and the additional tables that display lists such as tables, images and appendices. Additional tables update automatically according to the heading and caption styles used in the document. Additional tables only apply to original contents: if you use tables, maps or images printed from another document, you must reference them manually (below their respective tables). The styles used in these tables are Table of Figures, TOC 7 and TOC 8. Table of contents and other tables can be spread over several pages. However, it is possible that just a few lines overflow to the next page and such cases should be corrected. It is alright to decrease spacing of a few points before and after the paragraphs in TOC styles or to reduce top margin size but the Table of Content heading should never be higher than the left shape. Tables other than the main Table of Contents will update automatically, as long as the caption for tables, figures and maps were done properly. You can also place each table on a separate page. To do so, modify the paragraph parameters for so they start Heading 6 on a new page – See Paragraph dialog to the left.

APPENDICES The appendices placed at the end of the template are actually dividers. The titles consist of numbered lists (styles List Number2 and List Number 3) so their numbering is automatic. This unusual structure is required for automatic update of the list of appendices after the Table of Contents. To place one or several pages between these dividers – to insert text, for example – click at the end of the title and insert a page break (not a section break). In double-sided document, you must insert two page breaks so the back of your divider remains blank. Each divider must be preceded by a section break. In fact, in the Appendices, the first page of each section is different from the other pages in that section, to display the backdrop shape only on dividers. To ease the process of inserting a new divider, special buttons were added to your Template ribbon. You must use these buttons to add a new appendix. Place cursor at the end of the page on a divider and then click on either of the Add appendix divider. This feature will create the new page and format its title. To delete an appendix divider, select the page, including the section break preceding it, and delete. IMPORTANT: DO NOT delete the Appendix A. It will damage the page set-up, headers and footers in the whole document. Note: Inserting a sub-divider will usually insert a blank page before it so it does not print on the back of the upper-level divider. It can be removed manually if you’re printing single- sided.

Front cover Back cover PRE-PRINTED WINDOWED COVERS The file for this document is not available since these covers must be ordered from your local office supply service.

FEATURES These covers are pre-printed on glossy cover stock. The front page has a window cut-out on the inside cover where project title, number and phase are located, as shown opposite.

REPORT COVER TEMPLATE Front cover Alternate front cover Back cover This cover is made using the Report Cover template, 1 2 4 3 which contains two pages: the front and back covers. Both pages must be printed on card stock (at least 220 g/m²). It is also possible to laminate these pages for hardness and for a more professional look, but this option is no longer recommended for sustainability reasons. It is best to use better quality .

ALTERNATE FRONT COVER If you do not have a picture for your project, you can remove the whole table row that contains the image and place a Corporate Red border between the two remaining rows.

EDITING COVER Only the front page needs editing. And if you are using the cover included in the main report template, it is done using the Document Details tool. Otherwise, simply enter the following information: 1 Report number. It may be the project or client reference number. Alternately, it can be used for

the client’s name. 2 Document title. It can be the name of the project or the title of the report. 3 Phase or sub-title. Optional. It may either be the phase (as a progression report) or simply a subtitle for the project. Remove the line if it has no use. 4 Month and year. Date of submittal for the report.

REPORTS Front cover Inside cover 11" X 17" OR A3 FORMAT

In certain cases, reports can be produced in 11" x 17" or A3 format (landscape orientation), either at the client's request or based on the project manager's decision.

DOCUMENT LAYOUT The graphic design aspects of certain pages (e.g. title page, cover page and dividers) have been adapted while the rest of the document is arranged in a two- column layout for ease of reading. Like regular reports, there is always the possibility of using an Intro pages Table of contents image rather than a geometric shape on the cover page. The cover letter was omitted because it should always be printed in LetterUS or A4 format. Please use the letterhead template. If you do not have a picture for your project, you can remove the image and stretch the blue rectangular shape down to the bottom of the page.

TOOLBAR This template contains the same tools (with a few exceptions) as the standard template. Please read Main Report Template section for more details. Body of the document Appendices The following buttons were deleted from the standard report toolbar since they were no longer of any use given the page format: — Double-sided printing: This option is not available in this template; it is not designed to support this type of printing. — Insert landscape orientation section — Delete letter: This page does not exist in this template.

QUALITY MANAGEMENT / REVISION HISTORY PAGE Many units or regions will include a quality management page to display a control list of people involved in the creation of the proposal at different levels of the process. This page is usually removed before the document is sent to the client. To do so, select it from the top down to the end, including the section break marker, and delete it.

TABLE OF CONTENTS The tables are managed automatically, taking into account the title styles used in the document. Table of Contents can spread over several pages. However, it is possible that just a few lines overflow to the next page and such cases should be corrected. It is alright to decrease spacing of a few points before and after the paragraphs in the TOC styles. As a last resort, reduce font size for each of these styles. Never reduce upper and lower margins of this section. Since these pages are not generally counted, the fact that the Table of Contents takes an extra page has practically no effect on the page limit sometimes imposed by the client. The list of appendices has to be done manually because they are not part of the document. Important: To use less space, headings above level 1 are listed in lowercase, even though they appear in uppercase inside the body of the document. Make sure you type your headings as you would if they were lowercase. Tip: To prevent such errors, activate the Navigation Pane (checkbox under the ribbon View tab). All headings will appear in lower case as they were typed. Spell check can also detect errors in words spelled like this: Example.

46 – TEMPLATE USER GUIDE

PROJECT SHEETS / DATASHEETS The proposal templates include a table used as a frame for project datasheets. The table cell can be stretched or narrowed to enable different formats of pictures. If no photo is available for the project, copy the contents of the first row and move it into the left cell to replace the photo. Then remove the first row. Note that if a project is worth appearing in a proposal, it is also worth having a photo for it. Bottom border should be raised up as much as possible so that project description is closer to its subject (as shown in bottom left illustration). Tip: We recommend not deleting the datasheet sample frame from your document until you are certain you will not be adding new projects.

Editing projects The datasheets are designed to be compatible with the project datasheets styles created from corporate templates. You cannot, however, simply copy the complete content of a datasheet and paste it all at once into the proposal. You have to copy the following sections separately: — Project title: paste using destination styles. — Photo: delete the photo, paste the new one into the table cell and then resize it so the width of the image matches the width of the cell. — Characteristics (location, client, cost, etc.): copy the text on the line below the word "LOCATION" to the end of the cell and paste it in the same location in the proposal file (see selection in image to the left). — Descriptive text: copy what is under the table and paste it using destination styles.

Multiple projects on one page By default, each new project begins on a new page. You can, however, place more than one on a single page (see procedure opposite): 1 Select first line of the table (project title). 2 Open the paragraph setting window using the Paragraph button on your Template ribbon. 3 Uncheck Page break before in Line and page breaks tab. 4 4 The datasheet should move to the previous page, provided there is enough space for it.

48 – TEMPLATE USER GUIDE

PROJECT TABLES Another option, when there is less space in a proposal, is to use the sample project table included in the proposal template. This table is used when images are not required and a brief description is enough. You can also delete the features and put an image in the cell. In this case, the description text should make up for the omission of the features. If you use this option, you should also make sure that the images are the same size, for a more aesthetic look. The cell shading behind the images should also be removed.

ORGANIZATIONAL CHARTS Although organizational charts can be created directly in Word using forms, tables or, better yet, SmartArt objects, it is far better to use tools such as Adobe InDesign, Adobe Photoshop or Visio and to export the chart as an image, preferably .jpg because Word is more compatible with RVB mode. Samples of templates will for organizational charts will be made available soon.

PROPOSAL COVER TEMPLATE Front cover layout 1 Front cover layout 2 Back cover The Proposal Cover template contains two pages: the 2 3 1 4 front and back covers that must be printed on card 5 6 stock (at least 220 g/m²). You can also laminate them for hardness and for a more professional look, but this option is no longer recommended for sustainability reasons. It is best to use better quality coated paper.

ALTERNATE FRONT COVER If you do not have a picture for your project, you can remove the whole table row that contains the image and place a Corporate Red border between the two remaining rows.

EDITING COVER Only the front page needs editing. And if you are using the cover included in the main proposal template, it is done using the Document Details tool. Otherwise, simply enter the following information: 1 Title and sub-title of the document. This could be the project name. 2 Number of the request for proposals. This is generally the client reference number. 3 Logo. To replace logo, double-click in header and right-click the logo. Select Change picture and navigate to the new logo, select it and click Insert. 4 Address. Enter address of bidding office. 5 Information Classification. In service proposals, this is used to identify a document as Original or as Copy in printed documents. 6 Boilerplate. The numbers expressed in the text need to be updated to reflect company expansion.

DESCRIPTION OF Common Tools

USER GUIDE This opens the latest version of this guide on the Intranet for quick reference. Depending on your regional security settings, a window may appear with a warning that you are about to access internet. Click OK to confirm. PROOFING LANGUAGE Language When text is pasted from another document, Word keeps the language of the source status document, e.g. if the source document was written in English (U.S.), the pasted text will keep this property. This cannot be solved by Language Auto-detect. Note: For uniformity, English (Canada) is used in the global templates and in regions where English is not an official language. In other regions, like UK, US and Australia, region-specific English is used. Transfer of language properties while pasting text is a software limitation. To solve this, select the text and click Proofing Language. Important: If no text is selected, no changes will occur.

INFORMATION CLASSIFICATION By clicking on this button, information classification (FOR INTERNAL USE, PUBLIC, CONFIDENTIAL, HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL, ORIGINAL or COPY) can be selected and inserted. Optionally, information can be entered manually (such as REGISTERED, URGENT, or delivery mode) in the dialog box.

53 – TEMPLATE USER GUIDE

PASTE AND KEEP TEXT ONLY — Used mainly when copy/pasting text from fields such as those used in some header fields. — Using this button to paste will remove any formatting from the original text and paste the text only.

PASTE AND USE DESTINATION STYLES — Use to copy/paste text from another document. — The pasted text will take on the style of the text in the new location. It is recommended that you use these special paste buttons when transferring text from another document. Using default ‘Paste’ (or CTRL-V) may bring in Styles from the source document that could interfere with new document formatting.

DOUBLE-SIDED PRINTING This feature allows easy changing of the document layout from one-sided printing to double-sided and vice-versa. When you click this button, a dialog box tells you the current print setting and allows you to keep or change it. Button will When you choose double-sided printing, various parts of your documents, such as headers and footers, will be mirrored. That means, for example, that page numbers will be in the outside margin of each page, as shown opposite. Note: This setting may sometimes cause problems in landscape sections. This is due to an incompatibility between MS Word and some printer drivers. If this kind of conflict occurs, we recommend converting the Word file to .pdf format before printing it.

54 – TEMPLATE USER GUIDE

INSERT MENU Landscape section This dropdown menu allows the insertion of different pages in the document:

Landscape Section

You have two options to insert a page with a landscape orientation: either in regular (LetterUS or A4) format or in enlarged (tabloid or A3) format. Make sure to place the cursor at the beginning of a preferably empty line before using this feature because the page will be inserted where the cursor is located. This feature manages sections breaks, layout in headers and footers, and page numbering. If you need to delete such a section, select the section breaks preceding AND following that section before you do. Activating the formatting marks is recommended. And for more safety, checking the page numbering after deletion would also be a good idea.

Appendix Dividers and Sub-Dividers Divider Sub-divider These two features can quickly and safely add dividers pages in the appendix section. Inserting such pages manually may be complicated due to the section management and the particularity of the styles involved, so it is better to make the macros to do it for you. You can remove all the added pages by selecting a page including the section or page break preceding it. BUT do not attempt to delete the first divider page (Appendix A) because you might damage all headers and footers in the process. Do not print last page if you don’t need it or, if it applies, remove it from the pdf file.

55 – TEMPLATE USER GUIDE

DELETE MENU This dropdown menu allows the deletion of specific pages without the risk of damaging the document because of the section breaks they contain. Note: Once deleted, you cannot get the pages back.

TABLE OF CONTENTS This feature has four purposes:

1 It adjusts table parameters so that it matches regional settings. 2 It repairs the main table of contents if some levels have disappeared from it. 3 It allows setting up the amount of headings sub- levels included in the TOC. Numbers ranging from 1 to 4 are accepted. Any other input will be considered invalid and the process will be aborted.

Clicking OK in the dialog will replace the table

with a new one with all desired headings. 4 It refreshes all tables in a single click. Note: This does not address display problems when heading styles have been used in wrong places.

56 – TEMPLATE USER GUIDE

CHAPTERS ON ODD PAGE This button lets you specify whether or not chapters will begin on an odd page – in

other words, whether, in a double-sided document, the chapters begin on the right- hand page. When you click this button, a dialog box tells you the current setting and allows you to keep it or change it. This setting is important if you are planning to use dividers between each chapter. When the document is printed, a blank page is inserted just before the beginning of the chapter, if necessary. Note that if the button already appears in darker grey, it means the document is already set to have chapters starting on odd pages. Note: In this setting, added pages are counted. This means that you cannot manually change the numbering of a right- hand page to an even number. You must take this into account if your proposal has a maximum allowable number of pages.

57 – TEMPLATE USER GUIDE

PARAGRAPH This is not an exclusive feature but simply a Word command placed on the Template ribbon to make it easier to use without having to switch to another ribbon tab. (see dialog opposite)

COMPRESS TEXT This button is used to gradually change the vertical and horizontal space occupied by selected text. The feature only affects selected text. It is preferable to use this feature on text that is uniformly formatted. For example, select multiple Body text style paragraphs and bulleted lists and click Compress Text button. The feature gives best results when selected text is set to its default format. It is a good idea to hit CTRL-Space after selecting text and before clicking this button. The first three clicks gradually reduce the space between lines and the next three gradually reduce the horizontal spacing between characters. Further reduction may compromise legibility.
