Hire the Best Wordperfect Specialists
in Canada

I am a Graphic Designer based in Surabaya, Indonesia, specializing in User Interface Design and Development. I build clean, appealing, and functional interfaces which comply with the latest web standards. But that's just a part of it. Design is my life. It's something I do before I go to bed, and something I can't wait to do in the mornings. Without it, my world would be black and white. I have 13 years of experience with Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Dreamweaver, Adobe InDesign, Adobe Premiere, Adobe After Effect, Adobe Acrobat, Ms Word, Ms Excel, Ms PowerPoint. I build sites with XHTML and CSS, using a little of JavaScript and Wordpress.

If your document has turned into a complete mess, or just needs a proper redesign, I fix it. I create or rebuild Word documents, and PowerPoint presentations when needed, so they are clean, stable, and easy to update. Typical examples are reports, proposals, manuals and internal documentation that need to hold up under real use. Clients come to me when: • Formatting keeps breaking • Numbering is out of control • Styles are inconsistent, or no stylesheet is used at all • Multiple people have edited the file and it’s now unmanageable • AI-generated documents “look fine” but behave terribly That’s where I come in. 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗜 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗱𝗼 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘆𝗼𝘂 I don’t put a bucket under the leaks. I rebuild or fix documents using proper structure and best practices in Microsoft Word, and when needed, Microsoft PowerPoint. This includes: • Gutting and cleaning up manual formatting • Setting up or repairing stylesheets • Fixing numbering and headings hierarchy • Rebuilding layouts with the correct structure • Making document formatting consistent across the entire file • Converting AI-generated, PDF, Canva or InDesign templates into fully usable files • Setting up or fixing the other usual offenders: automatic table of contents, headers, footers, page numbers, etc. The result is a document that looks good AND actually works the way it should. 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗱𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻? If your document or presentation needs a visual refresh, or if you’ve rebranded, I handle that as well. Combining solid structure with a clean design is where we get the best results. Whether you need a full cleanup, a redesign, or both, I adapt to your needs. 𝗖𝗹𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗼𝗻𝗶𝗮𝗹𝘀 "Sandra is a pro! She developed an incredible document for us that was on-brand, creative and works perfectly. Her support is awesome and her usage documentation was easy to understand." "Super exceptional work! Sandra took our contract creation process and thoroughly streamlined it saving us time and money. In addition, she made our boring contracts look so much better. No need to look further, Sandra is 5 Stars plus!" “Sandra's Microsoft Word skills are incredible. She was able to take a PDF form and make it into a Word template that looked exactly like the PDF. She utilizes all of the features of Word, like stylesheets and content controls to their full capabilities. When my project was done, she went above and beyond to make sure changes were made to my liking. I highly recommend her.” 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗜 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 After a quick exchange of messages to clarify your needs, I work independently and efficiently, focusing on your intended use and best practices. I take the time to fix things properly, not just patch issues. If your document is simple, I’ll keep it simple. If it’s complex and broken, I’ll rebuild it the right way. If you’re not sure what your document needs, feel free to reach out with a file example and/or questions. I’ve been doing this for over 20 years, and I still love a good Word mess and the occasional PowerPoint one. I’m happy to take a look and point you in the right direction.

I design corporate and editorial documents, and I use automation to do it faster than most. With XML, data merge, and custom scripting in InDesign, I produce high-volume catalogues, reports, and brochures with total accuracy across every page. Work that would normally take a month, I can deliver in just a few days. With 15+ years in editorial and publication design, I've worked with clients ranging from enterprise software companies to organizations serving First Nations communities across Canada. My work covers annual reports, product catalogues, corporate brochures, one-pagers, infographics, and long-form case studies. What sets my work apart: Accessibility built in. Every document follows proper heading structure, tagging, and reading order, meeting WCAG 2.0 AA and AODA requirements so your content works for screen readers and satisfies compliance needs. This isn't an afterthought; it's part of how I build. Automation that saves you weeks. I work with XML and InDesign data merge to produce high-volume, data-driven documents. A catalogue or report that would normally take a month can be built in a day. I regularly produce 50+ documents per month for a single client, with full consistency across every page. Brand consistency at scale. Whether it's one brochure or a hundred-document system, every piece stays aligned to your guidelines. I work fully online through a clear brief process, so you get professional results without long calls or back-and-forth. If you have a document project, send me the details and I'll tell you exactly how I'd approach it.

Designing and creating high-quality, stylistically pleasing, stable, functional, predictably formatted documents using automated functionality features provided by MS Word software, is what I do best. I have recently completed several MS Word formatting and template design projects through Upwork comprising: legal, financial and business documents; operations and technical manuals; aviation manuals; training and course materials; all which were well suited to customized numbering algorithms and other features provided by MS Word. PDF Conversion: I am experienced with PDF to Word conversion methods and know the shortcomings of machine conversion. I have several clean-up routines to look for and remove unnecessary section breaks, font scaling and many other unwanted codes from converted text. I then create a new document with a customized template and style sheet which I use to build a new “clean” document. Fonts, spacing, indentation of paragraphs and general layout will be consistent. I also have many years of experience working for the Canadian federal Justice Department coding, tagging, formatting, updating, proofreading and publishing legislation (draft bills, statutes and regulations) for introduction in Parliament. Due to the high-profile nature of this work, I was required to produce quality work without errors prepared within short timeframes. Publishing for public accessibility was on paper, CD-ROM and the departmental website. I am from Canada and my native language is Canadian English so correct English spelling and grammar usage is quite natural for me. My knowledge and experience includes: - analyzing requirements and creating document formats and structures accordingly; - creating templates, style sheets and Definition Type Documents (DTDs) to enforce format and indexing specifications; - creating documents using different text editing, publishing and xml editing software: Microsoft Word, WordPerfect, Interleaf, Folio Views, Arbortext, Adobe Acrobat; - converting files from PDF to Word; - transcribing files using Express Scribe and InqScribe transcription software. I have a very good knowledge of legislative formats, structures and terminology. My performance evaluations frequently made positive reference to my dedication, commitment, reliability, conscientious attitude, persistence, efficiency, competence, creativity, perseverance, tactfulness, discretion, and attention to detail.
