Templates

Templates are specific Style groupings that you have created so you can use them over and over. Templates can be created for anything, but common uses are letters, faxes, documents, business cards, newsletters, calendars, etc. One major difference between Styles and Templates is that templates can contain text, images, and settings.

Using Templates

Actually, you use a Template each time you start Writer; the Standard Template is what you see when you open a new document. However, if you would like to make changes to the Standard Template that is easy to do.

Making Font Changes

If you want to make font changes to the Standard Template choose Tools, Options, OpenOffice.org Writer and then Basic Fonts. This will open the fonts so you can change the Standard template fonts.

You can also click the Default button at the bottom of the page to restore system defaults.
