Dear Sam, Thank you for your response, Now, I'm taking a look at existing archetypes to find if they will be useful for my case or not. Having an idea of the keyword to be searched is important itself! is there any other way to view all existing archetypes? Anyway, I used web service to find archetypes, there is a mind map file relating to each archetype, is there any way to save the mm file ? I can just open it in firefox I want also to print e.g the interface view of Archetypes, is any print service supported for Editor?
