Hello Paul, A template can save you a lot of work. You can, for instance, have a template for personal letters and another for business letters. You can set up the top of the letter and the end, choose the appropriate font, create paragraph styles and have hotkeys associated with them.
You can also have templates for writing documents such as course papers for students. Pages comes with quite a number of templates already defined, but they follow American styles which are not always appropriate elsewhere in the world.
