how to use 2007 styles in Word 2003

[skoub]

hi everyone,

we have Word 2003 but we really like the Styles that come with Word 2007. Is
it possible to export these Styles and use it in Word 2003? And if yes, how
can i do that.

In Word 2007, click the Home tab of the ribbon. In the Styles group, click
Change Styles | Style Set | Word 2003. To make this choice the default,
click Change Styles again, and then click Set as Default. If/when you are
prompted to save the changes to your template, choose to do so.

One possibility is to create a document in Word2007 that uses the
styles you want to transfer, open it in Word2003, and make each of
them a New Style in Word2003. You'll also need to copy over the fonts
used in these styles.

If Word2003 and Word2007 are on the same computer, you may be able to
open a.dot template in Word2007 and use the Organizer to copy styles
to it from a .dotm template.

Sorry, apparently I read the question "backwards"... :-(

From a Word 2007 document with the desired formatting, simply save a
template in Word 97-2003 format; you can then use it with Word 2003.
