Document templates
As you learned from the previous sections, character and paragraph styles are
saved in the document in which they were created. If you want to use certain styles
in future documents as well, you should save them in a document template.
Each time you invoke File > New, TextMaker allows you to select a document
template as the basis for the new document. If, at this point, you select a document
template that you have created, all character and paragraph styles that you stored in
the template will become available to you in the new document.
Document templates can also include text – for example a letterhead. So, you can
kill two birds with one stone: set up a document template with your letterhead and
your favorite styles for letters, create another template for faxes, another for business
reports, and so forth.
Templates linked to a database
It gets even better: You can attach a database to a document template and then
insert database fields into it. Then, when you create a new document on the basis of
this template, the TextMaker database appears automatically, allowing you to select
a record and insert its fields into your letterhead, your fax form, etc.
Creating a letter becomes child’s play: invoke File > New, choose the letter template,
select the addressee – and the letterhead is completely filled out and ready.
Tip: TextMaker comes with numerous prepared document templates for letters,
faxes, etc. Try them out sometime – simply invoke File > New and select a
template from one of the sub-folders.
