Themes and fonts

A theme is a set of colors and fonts that applies to the entire database to give it a consistent, professional look. By default, databases use the Office theme. When you change the theme, all of the theme fonts and colors in your database change to match the new theme. Designing and modifying reports using theme elements can help you keep the appearance of your reports consistent.

To change the theme:

  1. Select the Design tab, locate the Themes group, and click the Themes command. 
  2. A drop-down menu will appear. Select the desired theme.
