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 Microsoft Word templates like you would any other Word document. See
“Converting Documents to the OpenOffice.org Format” on page 68 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 (http://documentation.openoffice.org/HOW_TO/index.html) .
Creating a Template
A template is a text document containing only the styles and content that you want to appear in
every document, such as your address information and letterhead on a letter. When a document is
created or opened with the template, the styles are automatically applied to that document.
To create a template:
1 Click File > New > Text Document .
2
Create the styles and content that you want to use in any document that uses this template.
3 Click File > Templates > Save .
4
Specify a name for the template.
5 In the Categories box, click the category you want to place the template in.
The category is the folder where the template is stored.
6 Click OK .
3.2.5 Working with Large Documents
You can use Writer to work on large documents. Large documents can be either a single file or a
collection of files assembled into a single document.
Navigating in Large Documents
The Navigator tool displays information about the contents of a document. It also lets you quickly
jump to different elements. For example, you can use the Navigator to get a quick overview of all
images included in the document.
