1.4.4.2 Using a Template to create a new Borehole Document
You can start your work to generate a log chart using a new Borehole Document
that already contains the chart’s framework. The framework includes empty logs,
header/trailer and the preferred layout. Data can be inserted into this framework
either interactively – e.g. when describing a core – or it can be loaded from files. The
corresponding data columns can be merged one by one.
To create a new Borehole Document based on a template:
� Open WellCAD
Document
templates
Current directory

� Click the New (CTRL + N) option from the File menu. The New
document dialog box will appear.
New document dialog box provides access to document templates.
The Type of new document ... window shows the default entries Blank Borehole
document and Blank Field document followed by a list of document templates
which can be used to create a new Borehole Document. The document templates
are taken from the folder that is displayed in the Template directory field. To
change the location, click the Browse button. The Type of new document ... list
will be refreshed.
If you select a document template and click the OK button a new Borehole
Document will be created with a chart framework setup according to the
information derived from the document template. As no data exists in the new
Borehole Document no depth information is available. Usually the vertical extension
of a document is derived from the maximum depth range that the data contained in
