Sharing a custom color theme with others

A custom color scheme is available only to the currently logged-in user on the PC on which it is created. If you want to share it with another user on the same PC, you can copy it into his or her user folder:

  • In Windows Vista: C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Templates\Document Themes\Theme Colors where username is that user’s login name.
  • In Windows XP:
    C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Microsoft\Templates\Document Themes\Theme Colors.
  • The default color themes are located in: C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Office\Document Themes 12\Theme Colors regardless of the operating system version.

Another way to share a custom color theme is to create the new color theme and then save the (overall) theme to a theme file (.thmx). See the section “Creating a new theme” later in this chapter. The resulting theme file will contain the custom colors, as well as the usual theme content.
