To create a new document template, proceed as follows:
1. | Start a new document or open a document or document template that you want to use as the basis for the new template. |
2. | Edit the text in the document if you want the document template to contain text also. |
3. | Make any desired changes to the character and paragraph styles. |
4. | If you want, you can even change settings in the dialog boxes Layout | group Page setup (group arrow) and File | Properties. These settings will then also be saved in the document template. |
5. | Choose the ribbon command File | Save as. |
6. | Select the entry Template from the dropdown list Save as type. |
7. | At this point, TextMaker switches automatically to the folder where the document templates are located. |
| Android/iOS: This step is not supported here. Navigate manually to the folder "SoftMaker/TextMaker 2021 templates". |
8. | Type a name for the template in the File name input field. |
9. | Confirm that you want to save it. |
Organizing templates in several folders: You can use the New folder button at any time to create a new folder under the Templates folder, then switch to the new folder and save the template there. In this way, templates can be stored in separate folders according to their use. The document templates supplied with TextMaker are organized according to such types as business letters, personal letters and flyers.
