Changing the blank template document

The blank template documents are the options available under "File" > "New".

To add a template document:

Open an existing document ("File" > "Open", or "Ctrl + O") or create a new one with the New button on the Standard control bar or "Ctrl + N".
Make any required changes (these could be changing the page size, adding a logo or adding a message). You can edit the template document just like an ordinary document.

When you are happy with the changes choose "File" > "Save Template" and choose a template name.

Setting the default template

To make your new template the default template (i.e. the document you see by default when you first open Designer, and which appears when you press "Ctrl + N") check the Use as Default Template option when saving the template.

1. open the required template from the File > New menu
2. Select File > Save Template
3. Enter a filename or overwrite an existing template
4. Enable the checkbox labelled 'Use as default template'
5. Click the save button.
