To change a color, open the color box dropdown. Most colors though have the name ‘Accent 1’ etc. The colors aren’t all described by how they’re used and the image on the right shows you, for example, what color the hyperlink will be. This will open a new window with the current theme with options to customize it. Once you’ve applied the color scheme, open the color scheme list again and select the Customize Colors option at the very end of the list. Apply the one you want to use but has one or two off colors that don’t look right. There’s a Colors button which, when you click it, will reveal a list of color schemes that you can select. You can apply a color scheme from the Design tab in Word. Open any Microsoft Office app and apply a color scheme. Here’s how you can customize a color scheme in Microsoft Office. It’s better to make the change to theme and that way, it will apply automatically to the relevant element in your file. If one or two colors are off, or they don’t look as good as the other colors you can change it manually but that’s kind of tedious.
The color schemes aren’t just for the text they’re very well-built so that the colors apply to shapes you insert, tables that you add, and even headings.
Microsoft Office apps all have different color themes that you can use in your documents, spreadsheets, or presentations.
