I saw these instructions for making a new template. I'm not familiar with when/how you do that rather than just opening OpenOffice. 1.1.4. One thing I don't like about OOo is the breaks between pages where some of the text I paste from websites end up not being there, but, apparently, 'hiding' in the black 'trench' between pages. Only way I can see any or part of what's there is to make the font really tiny and then it all may get on the page I pasted onto. Will making a template allow me to get rid of that feature? I do believe that some of my documents don't lose part of the text pasted, but others do.In these cases, you might want to try paste without formatting. This will probably help.
Following the instructions below, If I tried experimenting with different styles or view of the OOo 1.1.4 doc, and save it, will that affect all the other docs I have created or will create in the future, or does it just apply locally to the document I'm working in?
1.Open a new, empty document
2. Edit it until it makes a good template. For example, edit the Styles in the Stylist.
Thank you,
Joan
The idea behind a template, is that you define a series of styles that you want to use in all of your documents. You can then create a new document using your template. Your newly created document will have all of the styles and text of your original template. If you later change the styles in a template, the next time you open a document created with the template, you can apply the new styles to the existing document. Pretty cool!
