Thanks, I'm now able to make a new document based on my template. How do I go in and modify the template itself, though, so that documents I make in future using it will look different? It's a test, as I said, so I'll want to do more than just the three lines I have now. Do I have to just keep making new documents, modifying, and saving each revision as a template, then deleting the previous one? It seems like there should be a way to edit the master template. > On Jul 26, 2015, at 2:27 PM, Anne Robertson <a...@anarchie.org.uk> wrote: > > Hello Alex, > > You have to add the template to your templates list to be able to open it and > modify it.
