    Are you talking about the "Themes" in the Design tab > Document Formatting ?

    I don't see mention of a Marquee theme in any version of Word:

    http://www.indezine.com/products/powerpoint/learn/themes/which-themes-are-installed.html

    If you are talking about themes, here are some ways to copy them to other machines:

    Share / Distribute Themes

    Send the Document

    Themes travel with the document

    Have the recipient save the Theme, with current name, to their local HD:

    1. 1.    Design tab
    2. 2.    Themes group
    3. 3.    Save Current Theme.

    Or in Word

    1. 1.    Page Layout tab
    2. 2.    Themes group
    3. 3.    Themes drop down
    4. 4.    Save current Theme (use the default theme name)

    Distribute the .THMX file

    Copy the .THMX file to the standard Theme location:

    C:\Users*username*\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Templates\Document Themes.

    The exact location varies slightly depending on the OS.

    Copy 2010 Themes into 2013 (transfer Theme)

    If you have a computer with office 2010 then,

    1.    open excel, Go to Page Layout, Select the "Trek" and then on the same page you have an option to save the theme, Save the theme to the desktop, The extension of the file would be *.thmx.

    2.    copy the saved theme to the fallowing location on you Office 2013 computer

    "C:\Users\user name\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Templates\Document Themes"

    3.    Open excel 2013, Go to Page Layout, on the theme tab select "Browse for the theme and navigate to the location

    "C:\Users\user name\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Templates\Document Themes"

    4.    select the theme.

    ***************

    If you have access to a computer where Office 2010 is installed, you can copy all of the XML files from the folder C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Document Themes 14\Theme Colors. [Note: If the computer is running 64-bit Windows, the first folder in that path will be "Program Files (x86)" instead of just "Program Files".] Paste those files into the folder C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Document Themes 15\Theme Colors on your computer (again, if you have 64-bit windows, use "Program Files (x86)" in the path). You'll then find the new entries at the bottom of the list on the Colors button.

    Manually recreate 2010 theme in 2013 by entering XML with RBG values

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="no"?>

    <a:clrScheme name="Apex" xmlns:a="**http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/drawingml/2006/main**">

       <a:dk1>

          <a:sysClr val="windowText" lastClr="000000"/>

       </a:dk1>

       <a:lt1>

          <a:sysClr val="window" lastClr="FFFFFF"/>

       </a:lt1>

       <a:dk2>

          <a:srgbClr val="69676D"/>

       </a:dk2>

       <a:lt2>

          <a:srgbClr val="C9C2D1"/>

       </a:lt2>

       <a:accent1>

          <a:srgbClr val="CEB966"/>

       </a:accent1>

       <a:accent2>

          <a:srgbClr val="9CB084"/>

       </a:accent2>

       <a:accent3>

          <a:srgbClr val="6BB1C9"/>

       </a:accent3>

       <a:accent4>

          <a:srgbClr val="6585CF"/>

       </a:accent4>

       <a:accent5>

          <a:srgbClr val="7E6BC9"/>

       </a:accent5>

       <a:accent6>

          <a:srgbClr val="A379BB"/>

       </a:accent6>

       <a:hlink>

          <a:srgbClr val="410082"/>

       </a:hlink>

       <a:folHlink>

          <a:srgbClr val="932968"/>

       </a:folHlink>

    </a:clrScheme>

    The short answer is, I just copied the contents of the Apex.xml file that came with Office 2010 -- whatever is there, is what works.

    The long answer is that the xmlns attribute declares a namespace (hence the "ns"). There is no requirement that the value be a valid URL, or even that it be in the format of a URL; it just has to be unique. URLs, real or fake, that begin with the address of a real site are often used as namespace IDs because they are unique.
