* When you create your template, add placeholders to store the information you’ll replace when you’re creating the actual document. One trick for adding dummy text easily is to use the rand() field. Simply click at the start of a new line and type =rand(). Word inserts a sample of text you can use to fill the space.

Create placeholders not only for text blocks but also for tables, pull quotes, captions, headlines, banners, tables of contents, images, and so on. This will save you time when you begin adding live content to the document down the road.

* Maybe you plan to insert a customer’s name at the start of a newsletter or customize a section of content based on what the customer purchased last month. If your template will include such variable information, you can add content controls to the template as you create it. A content control is a customizable tool you add to your page that elicits some kind of action from the person using the document. It might ask the reader to choose something from a list; it might offer check boxes or a comments box; or it might display information, such as customer name, product, or address.

To add and work with content controls, you must first display the Developer tab on the Ribbon. Just click the File tab, click Options, click Customize Ribbon, and click Developer in the box on the right (Figure B). Now click OK. The Developer tab is added to your Ribbon. You’ll find the content controls in the Controls group of this tab.

MARK AS FINAL When a document is marked as final, typing, editing commands, and proofing marks are disabled or turned off and the document becomes read-only. The Mark as Final command helps you communicate that you are sharing a completed version of a document. It also helps prevent reviewers or readers from making inadvertent changes to the document. 29
