3.2.4 Using Templates to Format Documents
Most word processor users create more than one kind of document. For example, you
might write letters, memos, and reports, all of which look different and require different
styles. If you create a template for each of your document types, the styles you need
for each document are always readily available.
Creating a template requires a little bit of up-front planning. You need to determine
what you want the document to look like so you can create the styles you need in that
template. You can always change your template, but a little planning can save you a
lot of time later.
NOTE
You can convert Microsft Word templates like you would any other Word
document. See
(page 81) for information.
A detailed explanation of templates is beyond the scope of this section. However, more
information is found in the help system, and detailed how-tos are found at the
OpenOffice.org Documentation page
.org/HOW_TO/index.html).
