Best practices for distribution andinstallation of Office Themes (THMX)?

S

Scott_Franks

Version: 2008 Operating System: Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) Processor: Intel I am creating a template (using the term loosely...not necessarily a potx) for widespread corporate use. I would like to distribute the custom theme that I have created so that end-users will be able to access it from within their Office suite. What is the best way to distribute the THMX file so that it will be fully usable by end-users?

If I send the THMX file to everyone, how do they make the best use of it?
Do they have to navigate to the (Users>...>Microsoft>Office>User Templates>My Themes) folder manually and then drop in the THMX file so that it will be forever accessible within their Office suite? Or is there a way to import it through PowerPoint (or other apps) and have it installed to the proper place automatically?

I hope this question is clear. In a nutshell, I'm just looking for "Best
Practices" advice for distributing and installing themes across a wide
network of users. I've got the theme properly saved on my machine, how do I get it properly placed on everyone else's machine?

Thanks for any guidance...
