New Document Template a NO-GO ...

When trying to establish a Default template within FH's
Preferences, the Default Ltr document is non-selectable.
And editing this [default] template and re-saving seems to
make it invisible to FH's Preference file.
Any work-arounds or suggestions?

Are you using Mac OS X? If so, this may be the reason.
The document you select as a FH template must be a
'Stationery Pad'
document.
There is a bug introduced by Mac OS X. If you save a FH
document as a
'FreeHand Template', FH is no longer able to save it in
'Stationery Pad'
format.
Here's the workaround. In the Finder, select the document and
Get Info
(Cmd+I). Check the 'Stationery Pad' box. You will now be able
to select the
document as a FH template. However, be aware that every time
you edit and
save a template file, you must manually re-check 'Stationery
Pad'.

  • Edit "New Document-template"

    Ik work with Dreamweaver a lot (CS3) and I create a lot of
    sites. Every site though, has the same folder structure.
    Is there a way to edit the "New Document" template for let's
    say... default css/javascript includes (link and script tags) and
    just a basic html layout (wrapper, header divs, etc...).
    I was also wondering if it is possible to automatically
    create a standard folder structure when setting up a new site
    inside DW? I always have the same structure so it would be great if
    I could skip the step to create those manually.

    Huh?
    When you do FILE | New > Basic HTML, you want the page
    that opens to contain
    all of your standard stuff? Sure - you can do that. What is
    your OS?

    I don't know any way to do that.

  • By default new document/templates start with above, How I change to be Strict 1.0 XHTML ?

    by default new document/templates start with above, How I change to be Strict 1.0 XHTML ?
    Tell me for Dw MX2004 & CS4 ?
    If I start with Transitional 1.0 XHTML and want to change to Strict 1.0 XHTML the only way is modify code or make a new doc ?

    Using CS4, there are a few ways to do it:
    1.  when creating a new document - you can select the doc type preference.
    2.  In your preferences, you can set up which document type will be opened when you select a new document.
    3.  If you start with one doctype and want to convert it to another use:

  • Use a pdf as a document template, New Document icon and action

    I am looking to use an editable pdf as a new document template for a content type.  I uploaded the pdf successfully, but when I select the new document from the template options, it attempts to open the pdf, and then provides the error message:
    Message from webpage
    The document could not be created. 
    The required application may not be installed properly, or the template for this document library cannot be opened.
    Please try the following:
    1. Check the General Settings for this document library for the name of the template, and install the application necessary for opening the template. If the application was set to install on first use, run the application and then try creating a new document
    again.
    2.  If you have permission to modify this document library, go to General Settings for the library and configure a new template.
    OK   
    I have already setup the docicon.xml with the following entry for pdf's:
    <Mapping Key="pdf" Value="pdficon_small.gif"/>
    PDF's are behaving appropriately throughout the environment, but I am unable to get the 'New Document' from a pdf template functioning.  Does this capability exist?
    Thanks!

    For Content Types, it only recognizes Office document types. In order to add PDFs, you would need to build a custom solution or purchase a 3rd party product (such as http://www.pdfshareforms.com/pdf-share-forms-enterprise/).

  • How can I change the format of the default new document?

  • Formatting "new document"

    When I open Pages I want it to immediately open a new document, and I want to format the new document template.  (I don't want the extra steps of creating a template, having to find that and then open it; just want the "new document" command to open the new document in my chosen format.  Possible?  Steps?

    Make a template the way you want it, then set that to be the start up document in your Pages Preferences.

  • I am changing from Word to Pages. I have created my custom template with all my styles etc and that is what comes up when I go for a New Document. Fine. How do I get it to use the same Custom Template when I use Pages to open a Word document?

    I am changing from Word to Pages. I have created my custom template with all my styles etc and that is what comes up when I go for a New Document. Fine. How do I get it to use the same Custom Template when I use Pages to open a Word document?

    The template is a document in itself, it is not applied to an existing document whether it is a Pages document or a Word document converted to a Pages document.
    You would need to either copy and paste content, using existing styles, or apply the styles to the converted Word document.
    You can Import the Styles from an existing document and those imported Styles can be used to override the current document's styles:
    Menu > Format > Import Styles
    The process is simplified if the styles use the same names, otherwise you will need to delete the style you don't want and replace it with the one that you do want when asked, then the substitution is pretty straightforward.

  • Saving only a portion of a Microsoft Word template into a new document using LabVIEW Report Generation Toolkit

    I have a Microsoft Word template I want to populate programmatically with test data. The template contains both explanatory text and a data sheet section with test data placeholders (bookmarks). Using the Report Generation Toolkit for Microsoft Office, I have been able to successfully populate the placeholders with data and save the results into a new Microsoft Word document. The problem is the new Word document contains not only the test data but also the explanatory text that was in the original document template. Ideally, I would like to have the generated document contain just the test data without the accompanying text. Is it possible to do this usi
    ng the Report Generation Toolkit?

    Hello Ryan,
    Two easy options come to mind.
    1. You may want to consider using an �ink annotation� instead of regular text for your explanation.
    2. You can programmatically do a find and replace on the explanatory text. Have LabVIEW find the whole paragraph, and replace it with nothing.
    If none of these suggestions help, or if I�m not correctly understanding your issue, please reply with comments or answers to the discussion above and any additional information that may help, and I�ll be happy to look further into it.
    Have a nice day!

  • How do I create a new template without creating a new document?

    I already have my document typed up but I would like to create a new template in the same document I'm using but when ever I do, it creates a new window claiming it's a new document. Suggestions?

    Be careful on unlocking and deleting stuff, cause this very easily can destroy the layout and your current arrangement
    About dimensions, If i am not mistaken, i read on another thread that this cannot be happen.

  • How do you open a new document from the template chooser?

    Hi There,
    Since upgrading to Yosemite, I can't find the option to open a new document from the template chooser. When I type in "template" in the help box it shows it under "file" But when I click on "File" I don't see that option.
    Basically, I'm trying to ask how do you access the templates in the new pages?
    Thanks so much

    Check your preferences and make sure Show Template Chooser is selected:
    Then just choose New from the File menu.

  • Using a PDF as a Document Template in SharePoint 2010: "New Document" icon and action

    Hi,
    I have to create a document template in SharePoint 2010 using a PDF. After much searching I have learned to install Reader on the SharePoint server to bring in AcroPDF.dll
    and set the OpenControl for PDFs in DOCICON.xml to be "AdobeAcrobat.OpenDocuments".
    After taking these steps I can check PDFs in and out of SharePoint, and edit PDFs as I would edit an MS Office document.
    However two problems remain with creating new documents based upon a PDF document template.
    1) The PDF icon does not appear in the New Document dropdown. This makes sense since I never referenced a 32x32 icon in the SharePoint config files. Where would I place the icon image file and which configuration file would I edit to use that image file, and how?
    The last three document templates are PDFs.
    The second problem I face is that when I click one of the document templates above that is a PDF, nothing happens. I have tried this with Acrobat installed on both the client and the server. It would be preferable to insert a copy of the PDF document used as a template without having to use Acrobat at all.
    Is there any resolution to either of these problems?

    According to what i found the image needs to be 16x16.
    See if this works.
    Edit the DOCICON.XML file to include the PDF icon
    In Windows Explorer, navigate to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\TEMPLATE\XML
    Edit the DOCICON.XML file (I open it in NotePad, you can also use the built-in XML Editor)
    Ignore the section <ByProgID> and scroll down to the <ByExtension> section of the file
    Within the <ByExtension> section, insert a <Mapping Key=”pdf” Value=”pdficon_small.gif” /> attribute. The easiest way is to copy an existing one – I usually just copy the line that starts <Mapping Key=”png”… and replace the parameters for Key and Value (see image below for example).
    Note: Do not take shortcuts and copy/paste from here. 99% of problems with PDF icons not being displayed are due to errors made in the DOCICON.XML file
    Save and close the file

  • Opening Word document templates from the New Document drop down does not open Word

    I have a document library with a number of Content Types attached to it.  Each one has a different Word document attached.  We have an intermittent problem where when you click to open one of these templates from the 'New Document' drop
    down list that nothing happens. The workaround appears to be either open Word first or re-boot the computer.  I think there is a problem with SharePoint not linking in with Word correctly.  Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this?
    Thanks

    Hi J,
    Can you please check in your internet explorer whether MS office Add ons enable or not.
    If not enable that and restart your browser and try again.
    Also try to repair MS Office if issue still persist.

  • New Document button to create/open document in Office Web Apps rather than through Template.doc in client's MS Word

    Greetings all,
    We have a particular campus with exceptionally limited access on their machines -- essentially, they can browse the web (access our Intranet) but not write information to drives or update their MS Word to read the new DocX format (or install plugins, etc,
    to do so).
    The new Web Apps seems to provide some potential for alleviating their issue -- but ideally, they would be able to originate (create) new documents right in Sharepoint by clicking on New -> Document and having the new document open in Office Web Apps
    rather than downloading / creating through Template.Doc (standard method in Sharepoint).
    Any ideas about how to make this kind of functionality happen?
    THanks!
    ---Dave

    When you mention "web apps" I assume you're referring to the new "Office web apps" in SharePoint 2010, so I'm not sure why this question is in a pre-sharepoint 2010 forum...  My answer entails how to go about doing this in 2010 only.
    In the document library's settings, go to advanced settings, and choose for the files to be forced to be opened in the browser, instead of the client software. 
    By default, you're only going to have a new word document for your "new" button.  You'll need to create content types for all the other document types you want them to be able to create.  So create a blank spreadsheet, and save it on your desktop,
    and create a blank powerpoint too. 
    Then create new content types at the top level of the site collection.  One called Excel Template, and one called PowerPoint template.  For each content type, click on the advanced settings and upload that blank file that you created. 
    In your document library, go to the library's advanced settings and change "allow mgmt of content types" to YES.  Then, in the content types section add those 2 new content types you created. 
    Now, when people click the "new" drop-down, they will have choices of a word document, excel and powerpoint, and they will open in the browser.
