Your brand, or your client's, and never ours
Generated files are copies of your own template, so they carry no SourceToDocs logo, footer or watermark on any plan. For several brands, keep a template per brand, or let the data swap the logo, colours and wording on one template.
A generated file is a copy of the Google Slides deck or Google Doc you designed, with the data filled in. There is nothing of ours to remove: no logo, no “made with” footer, no watermark, on any plan including Free. The file sits in your Google Drive, under your account, with the name your data gives it.
Two ways to serve several brands
| Approach | How | Best when |
|---|---|---|
| A template per brand | A document per client brand, each pointing at its own Slides or Docs template and the same data | A few high-value clients whose reports should look fully bespoke |
| One template, branded by data | Logo, colours and wording come from fields on the client’s record | Many clients on one layout, each with their own logo and colour |
The second approach uses things a Google Slides template can already do:
- Logos and images from a URL. Put
{{ client_logo_url }}in an image’s alt text and each deck gets that client’s logo. - Colours from a field.
{% bg {{ brand_color }} %}in a shape’s alt text paints it with the client’s hex colour. - Elements per client.
{% if %}in alt text removes a slide element for clients it doesn’t apply to; in the text itself, it switches wording.
Combined with split, one run produces every client’s report, each in their own colours, each in its own file.
Honest limits
- There is no separate brand library or brand settings screen. Brand lives in the template and in your data.
- Image, colour and element directives are Google Slides only. A Docs template uses a template per brand, or conditional text.
- Files are delivered to your Google Drive. Sharing them with each client is done in Drive or from your workflow.
