Creating a Word template

We are testing the trial version of Scroll office to determine if this can replace our current CMS. We have imported our current Word template, but we are not able to output a document with the title page, TOC, and correct headers and footers on the subsequent pages. I then uploaded a current Word document with the template applied. We still do not have a title page or TOC. The subsequent pages use the header and footer from our title page, not the pages we have designated following. I found this article: http://blogs.atlassian.com/2010/08/technical_project_documentation_wiki_export_microsoft_word_templates/

It states that there are available in the templates library. I had hoped to take the Classic Manual template and adjust it with our content and get an output that way. But, the Admins at our company are not finding a template library.

I've read through all of the help content I can find, and I'm not finding a way to fix our current template or grab a template we can edit. And, I'm not find a way to output a TOC. Any advice on what we are doing wrong is very appreciated.

Hi Anna,

thanks for contacting us.

To further analyze this, it would be great if you could send us your MS Word template to support@k15t.com. We'll then be able to have a closer look and will come back to you as soon as possible.

Best,Nils

Nils,

I will send both the original template we are using and the published Word doc we tried. Thank you!

Those links were very helpful, and we were able to export using our template after we followed those instructions. However, we still have an extra page that shows up between the TOC and the content. I've looked through the forum, and I'm not seeing any information on that.

Update :) We had this pesky extra carriage return in our template that was the culprit. We no longer have an extra page. Thank you again for all of your help.
