Creating a new default template

If you want every new document to have user-defined settings, you must create a new template and set it as default.

• Create a new document, add or modify styles, and change other settings as you desire.
• From the File menu, choose Templates → Save.
• Give the template a name.
• Select a category in the Categories list (for example, My Templates).
• Click OK to save the template.
• Choose File → Templates → Organize.
• In the Categories list, double-click on the My Templates folder.
• Right-click on the template you want to use and choose Set as Default Template from the menu.
• Click the Close button.
