Hi Guys,
Longtime lurker here, please excuse me for this, but my first post is a call for help. So, i just started as a product manager in a small company for locking systems. The offer, or quotation form, we send to the customer is an old excel sheet with Times New Romans etc... I really want to give it more professional look and since the manager, currently, isnt willing to spent some cash on software, do you have any ideas for design- maybe excel template or any kind of free stuff would be highly appreciated!

Microsoft Office never bothered doing something beautiful so don't know about Excel templates but used to make similar forms on Indesign and illustrator (depends on the need)
Some may say it's dumb and no convenient to fill up but nvm. Once you master the beast no one can stop you !
Thanks, i modified a litl bit the excel, because i need to copy a large amount of numbers and descriptions, so i dont think that these two would be suitable...

Hello Bulgarian friend.
Why are you Bulgarians so fixed with RFID locks?
Anyway... ditch Excel, use Word. Create tables , add graphics, then make the borders invisible. Kinda like the web before proper CSS. You'll look much more professional.
You can use the Excel document as a database and have a separate program or script generate PDF files based on the entries. You can do this indirectly, by first creating a preset LateX document that the script would fill in and then convert that to PDF using existing utilities.
I believe you can also integrate an Excel database into Word to use too. Maybe explore this first.
