Deleting a template

You cannot delete templates supplied with OOo or installed using the Extension

Manager; you can only delete templates that you have created or imported.

To delete a template:

1) In the Template Management dialog, double-click the folder that contains the

template you want to delete. A list of the templates contained in that folder

appears underneath the folder name.

2) Click the template that you want to delete.

3) Click the Commands button and choose Delete from the drop-down menu. A

message box appears and asks you to confirm the deletion. Click Yes.

Importing a template

If the template that you want to use is in a different location, you must import it into

an OOo template folder.

To import a template into a template folder:

1) In the Template Management dialog, select the folder into which you want to

import the template.

2) Click the Commands button and choose Import Template from the drop-

down menu. A standard file browser window opens.

3) Find and select the template that you want to import and click Open. The file

browser window closes and the template appears in the selected folder.

4) If you want, type a new name for the template, and then press Enter.

Exporting a template

To export a template from a template folder to another location:

1) In the Template Management dialog, double-click the folder that contains the

template you want to export. A list of the templates contained in that folder

appears underneath the folder name.

2) Click the template that you want to export.

3) Click the Commands button and choose Export Template from the drop-

down menu. The Save As window opens.

4) Find the folder into which you want to export the template and click Save.

Examples of style use

The following examples of common use of page and paragraph styles are taken from

Writer. There are many other ways to use styles; see the guides for the various

components for details.

Defining a different first page for a document

Many documents, such as letters and reports, have a first page that is different from

the other pages in the document. For example, the first page of a letterhead typically

has a different header, or the first page of a report might have no header or footer,

while the other pages do. With OOo, you can define the page style for the first page

and specify the style for the following pages to be applied automatically.
