How to create layout template pages?

I'm attempting to layout pages of text in Page for an eBook using the Layout mode and linked text boxes.
I think what I want to do (and I'm open to a better way of doing this) is to create a bunch of pages all with the same layout. While I can insert a new page from the supplied templates easily enough, none of them suit my needs, so I want to create my own Template document with its own subset of pages. Or at least, add my own Page to another template. The aim is to be able to click Insert/Page/MyPage for each new page, so that each one has - ideally - a new linked text box that the text will flow into automatically. Or less ideally, to have a load of pages, each with their own text box, that I can link.
However I can find no way to do either of these things with a custom layout page I've created. Is it just not possible in Pages, or am I missing something? All advice/links etc. gratefull received.
thanks
Matt

From my point of you, trying to teach you that the first thing to do is to search carefully in the user guide what you didn't is the best way to help. But it seems that you are unable to understand that.
You just understand: the wanted info is in page #wx of resource ABC.
For sure, trying to teach you that take more time that bottle-feeding you
Searching with the keyword "template" bring this page quite immediately :
Searching for "linked text box" brought this one quite immediately too.
It required more time to upload the screenshots here than to reach the pages but my rules are given by Confucius :
Quand on désire savoir, on interroge. Quand on veut être capable, on étudie.
Revoyez sans arrêt ce que vous savez déjà. Etudiez sans cesse du nouveau. Alors vous deviendrez un Maître.
When we wish to know, we question. When we want to be capable, we study.
See again(Revise) non-stop what you already know. Study ceaselessly of the new. Then you will become Master(Teacher).
Quand un homme a faim, mieux vaut lui apprendre à pêcher que de lui donner un poisson.
When a man is hungry, it is better to teach to him(her) to fish that to give him(her) a fish.
Quand vous plantez une graine une fois, vous obtenez une seule et unique récolte. Quand vous instruisez les gens, vous en obtenez cent.
When you plant a seed once, you obtain the only harvest. When you educate people, you obtain one hundred from it.
L'homme supérieur ne demande rien qu'à lui-même ; l'homme vulgaire et sans mérite demande tout aux autres.
The upper man asks only himself(itself); the vulgar man and without merit asks for everything the others.
The English version is the result of an automatic translation so I'm not sure that it's a good one.

How to create a template for pages in a book

How to create a template in Pages to create camera ready pages for publishing a book?

Nothing is "camera ready" these days, it is all digital.
What is it you need to know, a book can take many forms.
Does it contain color photos, spot colors, purely black ink etc?

How to create a One Page checkout

Hello nice people,
Does anybody knows how to create a ONE-PAGE Check Out Process in Online Shop Layout?
Thanks in advance

"I can resolve the problem if I can insert one page (or step) after
"registration - buy". This would be a "summary" page where the customer has
the last opportunity tu check out all his data and, if it is needed, to
correct his order, billing address, shipping, the way of payment"
<<< The only way to do this is with JS. You can use jQuery's .load() method
to load your cart into the registration layout. You'll have to do some
parsing of that cart table to obtain things like product name, quantity etc
and present this in some kind of summary. Parsing tables in jQuery is not a
nice task, so if you're going to embark onto producing this kind of summary
you may want to get rid off the table from the cart and simple throw in
some divs and tags which will help you parse the cart nicely. That mans
you'll have to construct the layout for the cart though using JS.
Example of alternative cart layout:
It renders like this:
product one
(S)
product one
(M)
onchange="UpdateItemQuantity(this.value,231502,234492,6737768,183427,'','US');return
false;" class="cartInputText" type="text" value="1">
onchange="UpdateItemQuantity(this.value,231502,234492,6737768,183428,'','US');return
false;" class="cartInputText" type="text" value="3">
$10.00
$45.00
$55.00
You can see that this is much nicer to read and you can then construct your
own data structure that will hold this info and render it it whichever way
you want to. You can even write it back as a table where each product is in
its own row. You may want to look at something that gives you template.
model, controller like ember.js.
Anyway, I hope that helps somewhat.
Cheers,
M

This issue is really becoming a problem for us. Does anyone have any examples of label templates. The label when generated automatically converts from pontrait to landscape. If you increase the size of the template then word complains about the page and margin size before printing.
Anyone have any ideas?

How to create a Templates for Categories and Products In BCC

Hi All,
Could you please tell me How to create a Templates for Categories and Products In BCC and how Can I get those Templates details(Categories and Products)in jsp
If possible can any one send the document or where we find in atg docs
Regards,

At product/category/sku level there is a property called template.
Find the property in ACC/BCC and provide all the values including the URL property.
In you jsp, you can use this property from product/sku like the way you retrieve any other property from sku/product.
<dsp:valueof param="product.template.URL" />
Using that property with <dsp:include> includes that page.
Peace

Basic question, how to create rtf template with a given xml file

Hello guys
I am new to BI publisher and I am learning how to create rtf templates using given xml fiel definitions by following the bi publisher guide
The steps I am following is:
1, create template using template builders, which is downloaded into MS words.
2, In the empty template, map the xml columns with template field using BI publisher tag
3, upload the template to BI Publisher as a layout.
That's all I can understand.
My question is:
1,in which above step do I import XML file into template builder (if not bi publisher), how to do so?
2,After template is created, how to associate this template layout with existing reports in BI Publisher, or is it necessary at all?
3,In the template content in MS Word template builder, what should I enter other than BI publisher tags for mapping XML field to desired template field
Or, if my understand of this process is entirely wrong, what's the right process of creating rtf template with a given XML file definition
Thanks

If you have a BI Publisher desktop installed, have a look a the demos,.. should answer most of your basic questions.
(Windows) Start->Programs->Oracle BI Publisher Desktop->Demos
Invoice Demo - good one for those with E-Business Suite

How to create rtf template to view report in Word and Excel, with numeric f

Hi,
Please help me!
How to create rtf template to view report in Word and Excel, with numeric formatted fields (like this 999 999 999,99 with spaces between numbers) and then end user be able to process those fields with Excel tools (sum, etc).
Thank you.

From what I have seen Excel can not handle 999 999 999.00. You can use 999999999.00 and then format it as you want in the xls bt you can not have values like 999 999 999.00 coming from publisher output and have functions on the values in Excel

Does anyone here knows how to create a login page thru JDBC?

Anyone here knows how to create a login page which connect to database thru JDBC but not JDBC-ODBC bridge?

Hi..pls you'll do people here a great good if you could explain yourself better..!
Anyway if you are trying to connect to an Oracle Database you dont need the jdbc-odbc bridge as oracle provides a special driver for java applets/applications that is "the thin driver" and the "oci driver"..so if you are connecting to Oracle your connection will look like this:
Class.forName("oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver"); //not sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver
Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection ("blah blah, blah");
no need for the jdbc-odbc bridge.
I hope i've answered your question.
Thanks.

How to create personal templates in SRM 4.0

Dear all
We are upgrading from EBP 3.0 to SRM 4.0 and we don't see in SRM 4.0 how to create personal templates.
The transaction BBPSC05 Create template create central/public templates and not personal ones (also if given to a basic user).
1) In the Shopping Cart we can go to Old Purchase Order and Tempaltes and there we can select on status Personal Template but were can we create them?
2) Additional question, how can we limit the availability of a public/central template to a certain users from some company or plant or ...
Thanks

Hi RD,
1) for detailed explanations read my answer in this thread:
SRM 4.0 Shopping cart templates
2) such limitation does not exist in SRM, even if often asked by customers: the possibility to maintain templates centraly at a level between the public (every user can see them) and the private template (only the user can see them). So you would have to change the standard search logic on templates, and implement an additional serach criteria.
