Changing a document template is no different from editing a normal document. You open the template, make your changes and save the document template.
Important: Of course, changing a document template will affect all documents that are subsequently created on the basis of this template.
To change a document template, proceed as follows:
1. | Choose the ribbon command File | Open (click directly on the icon itself). |
2. | Select Template from the dropdown list of file types. |
3. | Select the template to be changed and confirm that it has been opened. |
4. | Make the desired changes to the text or to the character and paragraph styles. |
5. | Choose the ribbon command File | Save to save the changed template. |
Of course, you could also save the template under a different name via the ribbon command File | Save as if you did not want to overwrite the original template.
