If you frequently create a certain type of document, such as a monthly report, a sales forecast, or a presentation with a company logo, save it as a template so you can use that as your starting point instead of recreating the file from scratch each time you need it. Start with a document that you already created, a document you downloaded, or a new Microsoft template you customized.
Save a template
-
To save a file as a template, click File > Save As.
-
Double-click Computer or, in Office 2016 programs, double-click This PC.
-
Type a name for your template in the File name box.
-
For a basic template, click the template item in the Save as type list. In Word for example, click Word Template.
If your document contains macros, click Word Macro-Enabled Template.
Office automatically goes to the Custom Office Templates folder.
-
Click Save.
Tip: To change where your application automatically saves your templates, click File > Options > Save and type the folder and path you want to use in the Default personal templates location box. Any new templates you save will be stored in that folder, and when you click File > New > Personal, you’ll see the templates in that folder.
Edit your template
To update your template, open the file, make the changes you want, and then save the template.
-
Click File > Open.
-
Double-click Computer or This PC.
-
Browse to the Custom Office Templates folder that’s under My Documents.
-
Click your template, and click Open.
-
Make the changes you want, then save and close the template.
Use your template to make a new document
To start a new file based on your template, click File > New > Custom, and click your template.
Note: If you’re using Office 2013, this button may say Personal instead of Custom.
Use your templates from earlier versions of Office
If you made templates in an earlier version of Office, you can still use them in Office 2013 and 2016. The first step is to move them into the Custom Office Templates folder so your application can find them. To move your templates quickly, use the Fix it tool.

Differences between templates, themes, and Word styles
If you think of your current document as a template, you can save it with a different name to create a new document that’s based on the current one. Whenever you want to create a document like that, you’ll open your document in Word for the web, go to File > Save As, and create a document that’s a copy of the one you started with.
On the other hand, if you’re thinking of the kind of templates you see by going to File > New, then no: you can’t create those in Word for the web.
Instead, do this:
If you have the Word desktop application, use the Open in Word command in Word for the web to open the document in Word on your desktop.
From there, create a template. When you go to File > New in the Word desktop application, you’ll be able to use your template for new documents. And if you store the documents online, you can edit them in Word for the web.

Если вы часто работаете в MS Word, сохранение документа в качестве шаблона наверняка вас заинтересует. Так, наличие шаблонного файла, с установленным вами форматированием, полями и прочими параметрами, может во многом упростить и ускорить рабочий процесс.
Шаблон, создаваемый в ворде, сохраняется в форматах DOT, DOTX или DOTM. Последний разрешает работу с макросами.
Урок: Создание макросов в MS Word
Что такое шаблоны в Ворде
Шаблон — это особый тип документа, при его открытии и последующем изменении создается копия файла. Исходный (шаблонный) документ при этом остается неизменным, как и его местоположение на диске.
В качестве примера того, каким может быть шаблон документа и зачем вообще он нужен, можно привести бизнес-план. Документы этого типа довольно часто создаются в Word, следовательно, используют их тоже довольно часто.
Так, вместо того, чтобы каждый раз заново создавать структуру документа, выбирать подходящие шрифты, стили оформления, устанавливать размеры полей, можно просто использовать шаблон со стандартным макетом. Согласитесь, такой подход к работе куда более рационален.
Урок: Как добавить новый шрифт в Ворд
Документ, сохраненный в качестве шаблона, можно открыть и заполнить необходимыми данными, текстом. При этом, сохраняя его в стандартных для Word форматах DOC и DOCX, исходный документ (созданный шаблон), будет оставаться неизменным, как уже было сказано выше.
Большинство шаблонов, которые могут вам понадобиться для работы с документами в Ворде, можно найти на официальном сайте (office.com). Кроме того, в программе можно создавать собственные шаблоны, а также изменять уже существующие.
Примечание: Часть шаблонов уже встроена в программу, но часть из них, хоть и отображается в списке, на самом деле находится на сайте Office.com. После того, как вы нажмете на такой шаблон, он будет мгновенно скачан с сайта и доступен для работы.
Создание собственного шаблона
Проще всего будет начать создание шаблона с пустого документа, для открытия которого достаточно просто запустить Word.
Урок: Как в Ворде сделать титульный лист
Если вы используете одну из последних версий MS Word, при открытии программы вас будет встречать стартовая страница, на которой уже можно будет выбрать один из доступных шаблонов. Особенно радует то, что все они удобно рассортированы по тематическим категориям.
И все же, если вы сами хотите создать шаблон, выберите “Новый документ”. Будет открыт стандартный документ с установленными в нем параметрами по умолчанию. Эти параметры могут быть, как программными (заданными разработчиками), так и созданными вами (если ранее вы сохраняли те или иные значения в качестве используемых по умолчанию).
Используя наши уроки, внесите необходимые изменения в документ, который в дальнейшем будет использоваться в качестве шаблона.
Уроки по работе с Word:
Как сделать форматирование
Как изменить поля
Как изменить интервалы
Как изменить шрифт
Как сделать заголовок
Как сделать автоматическое содержание
Как сделать сноски
Помимо выполнения вышеперечисленных действий в качестве параметров по умолчанию для документа, который будет использоваться как шаблон, можно также добавить подложку, водяные знаки или любые графические объекты. Все, что вы измените, добавите и сохраните в дальнейшем будет присутствовать в каждом документе, созданном на основе вашего шаблона.
Уроки по работе с Ворд:
Вставка рисунка
Добавление подложки
Изменение фона в документе
Создание блок-схем
Вставка знаков и специальных символов
После того, как вы внесете необходимые изменения, зададите параметры по умолчанию в будущий шаблон, его необходимо сохранить.
1. Нажмите кнопку “Файл” (или “MS Office”, если используете старую версию Word).
2. Выберите пункт “Сохранить как”.
3. В выпадающем меню “Тип файла” выберите подходящий тип шаблона:
- Шаблон Word (*.dotx): обычный шаблон, совместимый со всеми версиями Ворда старше 2003 года;
- Шаблон Word с поддержкой макросов (*.dotm): как понятно из названия, данный тип шаблонов поддерживает работу с макросами;
- Шаблон Word 97 — 2003 (*.dot): совместим со старыми версиями Ворд 1997 — 2003.
4. Задайте имя файла, укажите путь для его сохранения и нажмите “Сохранить”.
5. Созданный и настроенный вами файл будет сохранен в качестве шаблона в заданном вами формате. Теперь его можно закрыть.
Создание шаблона на основе существующего документа или стандартного шаблона
1. Откройте пустой документ MS Word, перейдите во вкладку “Файл” и выберите пункт “Создать”.
Примечание: В последних версиях Ворда при открытии пустого документа пользователю сразу предлагается перечень шаблонных макетов, на основе которых можно создать будущий документ. Если вы хотите получить доступ ко всем шаблонам, при открытии выберите “Новый документ”, а затем уже выполните действия, описанные в пункте 1.
2. Выберите подходящий шаблон в разделе “Доступные шаблоны”.
Примечание: В последних версиях Word ничего выбирать не нужно, список доступных шаблонов появляется сразу после нажатия на кнопку “Создать”, непосредственно над шаблонами находится перечень доступных категорий.
3. Внесите в документ необходимые изменения, воспользовавшись нашими советами и инструкциями, представленными в предыдущем разделе статьи (Создание собственного шаблона).
Примечание: Для разных шаблонов стили оформления текста, которые доступны по умолчанию и представлены во вкладке “Главная” в группе “Стили”, могут быть разными и заметно отличаться от тех, что вы привыкли видеть в стандартном документе.
- Совет: Воспользуйтесь доступными стилями для того, чтобы сделать свой будущий шаблон действительно уникальным, не похожим на остальные документы. Конечно, делайте это лишь в том случае, если вас не ограничивают требования к оформлению документа.
4. После того, как вы внесете необходимые изменения в документ, выполните все те настройки, которые посчитаете нужными, сохраните файл. Для этого нажмите на вкладку “Файл” и выберите “Сохранить как”.
5. В разделе “Тип файла” выберите подходящий тип шаблона.
6. Задайте имя для шаблона, укажите через “Проводник” (“Обзор”) путь для его сохранения, нажмите кнопку “Сохранить”.
7. Шаблон, созданный вами на основе существующего, будет сохранен вместе со всеми внесенными вами изменениями. Теперь этот файл можно закрыть.
Добавление стандартных блоков к шаблону
Стандартными блоками называют многократно используемые элементы, содержащиеся в документе, а также те компоненты документа, которые хранятся в коллекции и доступны для использования в любое время. Хранить стандартные блоки и распространять их можно с помощью шаблонов.
Так, используя стандартные блоки, вы можете создать шаблон отчета, в котором будут содержаться сопроводительные письма двух и более типов. При этом, создавая новый отчет на основе данного шаблона, другие пользователи смогут выбрать любой из доступных типов.
1. Создайте, сохраните и закройте шаблон, созданный вами с учетом всех требований. Именно в этот файл будут добавляться стандартные блоки, которые в дальнейшем будут доступны другим пользователям созданного вами шаблона.
2. Откройте шаблонный документ, к которому необходимо добавить стандартные блоки.
3. Создайте необходимые стандартные блоки, которые в дальнейшем будут доступны для других пользователей.
Примечание: При введении сведений в диалоговое окно “Создание нового стандартного блока” введите в строке “Сохранить в” имя шаблона, к которому их необходимо добавить (это тот файл, который вы создали, сохранили и закрыли согласно первому пункту данного раздела статьи).
Теперь созданный вами шаблон, содержащий стандартные блоки, может быть предоставлен другим пользователям. Сами же блоки, сохраненные вместе с ним, будут доступны в заданных коллекциях.
Добавление элементов управления содержимым к шаблону
В некоторых ситуациях требуется придать шаблону вместе со всем его содержимым некоторую гибкость. Например, шаблон может содержать раскрывающийся список, созданный автором. По тем или иным причинам этот список может не устроить другого пользователя, которому доведется с ним работать.
Если в таком шаблоне будут присутствовать элементы управления содержимым, второй пользователь сможет подкорректировать список под себя, оставив его неизменным в самом шаблоне. Чтобы добавить в шаблон элементы управления содержимым, необходимо включить вкладку “Разработчик” в MS Word.
1. Откройте меню “Файл” (или “MS Office” в более ранних версиях программы).
2. Откройте раздел “Параметры” и выберите там пункт “Настройка ленты”.
3. В разделе “Основные вкладки” установите галочку напротив пункта “Разработчик”. Для закрытия окна нажмите “ОК”.
4. Вкладка “Разработчик” появится на панели управления Ворд.
Добавление элементов управления содержанием
1. Во вкладке “Разработчик” нажмите на кнопку “Режим конструктора”, расположенную в группе “Элементы управления”.
Вставьте в документ необходимые элементы управления, выбрав их из представленных в одноименной группе:
- Форматированный текст;
- Обычный текст;
- Рисунок;
- Коллекция стандартных блоков;
- Поле со списком;
- Раскрывающийся список;
- Выбор даты;
- Флажок;
- Повторяющийся раздел.
Добавление пояснительного текста к шаблону
Сделать шаблон более удобным в использовании можно с помощью пояснительного текста, добавленного в документ. Если это необходимо, стандартный пояснительный текст всегда можно изменить в элементе управления содержимым. Для настройки пояснительного текста по умолчанию для пользователей, которые будут использовать шаблон, необходимо выполнить следующие действия.
1. Включите “Режим конструктора” (вкладка “Разработчик”, группа “Элементы управления”).
2. Кликните по тому элементу управления содержимым, в котором необходимо добавить или изменить пояснительный текст.
Примечание: Пояснительный текст по умолчанию находится в небольших блоках. Если “Режим конструктора” отключен, эти блоки не отображаются.
3. Измените, отформатируйте замещающий текст.
4. Отключите “Режим конструктора” повторным нажатием на эту кнопку на панели управления.
5. Пояснительный текст будет сохранен для текущего шаблона.
На этом мы закончим, из этой статьи вы узнали о том, что представляют собой шаблоны в Microsoft Word, как их создавать и изменять, а также обо всем том, что с ними можно делать. Это действительно полезная функция программы, во многом упрощающая работу с ней, особенно, если над документами работает не один, а сразу несколько пользователей, не говоря уже о крупных компаниях.

Всем привет! Если вы постоянно работаете с документами одного типа, с одинаковыми параметрами форматирования, то вам проще всего создать единый шаблон в редакторе Word. На самом деле шаблонов может быть несколько для разного рода документов. Таким образом вы сможете сильно сэкономить время, так как вам больше не придется постоянно форматировать новый документ под какие-то описанные стандарты. Готовые шаблоны сохраняются в форматах DOT, DOTX или DOTM. В статье я расскажу – как проще всего сделать шаблон в Ворде.

- ШАГ 2: Сохранение
- Как же работать с шаблоном?

Коротко про то – что же такое шаблон?
Как я уже и писал в самом начале – шаблон сохраняется немного в другом формате. Данный файл содержит в себе все нужное для форматирования, которое вы уже настраиваете под себя. Теперь вам не нужно постоянно для каждого нового документа изменять шрифт, отступы, цвет текста, стили для оглавления и т.д. Просто открываем данный файл, заполняем его, а вот при сохранении выбираем обычный Word формат. В программе можно создавать как собственные шаблоны, так и скачивать с интернета уже существующие.
ШАГ 1: Создание шаблона
Откройте Word программу. После открытия приложения вам будет предложено создать новый документ – перейдите на вкладку создания. Вы можете заметить чуть ниже есть строка поиска шаблонов в сети интернет. Но мы с вами будем создавать свой собственный шаблон, поэтому выбираем команду «Новый документ».
Далее откроется чистый документ, который впоследствии вы и превратите в шаблон. Для этого вам нужно изменить все те параметры форматирования, которые вам необходимы. Вы можете воспользоваться уроками с нашего сайта:
Советую ознакомиться с нашим бесплатным полным курсом по Word.
- Как изменить формат листа.
- Как сделать заголовок.
- Как изменить или создать поля на листе.
- Межстрочный интервал.
- Межбуквенные интервал.
- Как увеличить или уменьшить шрифт.
- Автоматическое содержание в документе.
- Как сделать список литературы.
Все что вы добавите в шаблон – будет в будущем использоваться в новых документах. Это также касается сносок, текста, графических объектов и даже рисунков.
- Как вставить рисунок.
- Как построить график.
- Нумерация страниц.
Я вам все же советую ознакомиться с курсом, ссылку на который я оставил чуть раньше. Там представлены все возможные варианты форматирования, которые помогут работать вам с любым шаблоном. Если говорить проще, то шаблон – это тот же самый файл, имеющий уже предустановленные настройки. Как только он будет готов – переходим ко второму шагу.
ПРИМЕЧАНИЕ! На самом деле вы можете работать уже с готовыми шаблонами. Просто изменяйте его под свои нужды.
ШАГ 2: Сохранение
Итак, наш шаблон уже готов, теперь нам останется просто его сохранить. В самом верху нажмите по вкладке «Файл».
Переходим в раздел «Сохранить как» и кликаем «Обзор», чтобы выбрать место сохранения – ваш компьютер. Но вы можете сохранить файл в том же облаке OneDrive, если вы с ним активно работаете.
Читаем – что такое облако и как им пользоваться.
Сначала вписываем название. После этого нам нужно выбрать «Тип файла» – нас интересует три варианта:
- Шаблон Word – если вы будете работать с той же версией Word.
- Шаблон Word с поддержкой макросов – если вы в шаблоне будете использовать макросы, выбираем этот вариант.
- Шаблон Word 97-2003 – для старых версий текстового редактора.
Как же работать с шаблоном?
Все очень просто – открываем сам шаблон и начинаем заполнять его текстом, картинками и другими объектами. Самое главное при этом выполнить сохранение в «Документ Word», а не «Шаблон Word», чтобы изменения сохранялись туда. При этом сам шаблон будет оставаться неизменным. Также вы всегда можете изменить некоторое форматирование, а потом сохранить файл в шаблон.
Как используются для создания документа шаблоны-образцы?
Для этого открываете любой уже готовый шаблон. Вы можете использовать и те шаблоны, которые загружены на сервера Microsoft – их можно найти через поиск при создании. Далее просто изменяем его под свой вкус и сохраняем в формате шаблона. Если вы уже будете работать с ним, как с документом, тогда сохраняем в формате DOC.
Видео
В уроке выше мы почти полностью рассмотрели создание шаблона в Ворде. Если я что-то упустил или забыл – напишите об этом в комментариях. Дополнительно советую посмотреть видео ниже. До новых встреч на портале WiFiGiD.RU.
Create, Save, Edit and Use Templates in Microsoft Word
by Avantix Learning Team | Updated February 14, 2021
Applies to: Microsoft® Word® 2013, 2016, 2019 or 365 (Windows)
You can create, save, use and edit templates in Microsoft Word for frequently-used documents such as letters, reports, proposals and manuals. Templates include basic character, paragraph and page formatting and may include text, custom styles, tables, images, macros, sections, headers and footers. If you save a document as a custom template, you can create a new document based on that template.

A document can be saved as a Word Template (dotx file) or a Word Macro-Enabled Template (dotm file).
In this article, we’ll take a look at 3 types of templates in Microsoft Word:
- Normal template (the default global template)
- Custom user templates
- Microsoft ready-made templates
Understanding the Normal template
Unless you select a different template, Word bases new documents on the Normal template by default. The Normal template is named Normal.dotm and its default style is the Normal style. It also includes built-in heading styles such as Heading 1, Heading 2 and so on.
Specifying a location for custom user templates
In Word 2013 and later versions, if you want to create your own custom user templates, you will need to specify a location for the templates so you can easily access them.
Custom user templates are typically stored in the following location (in 2013 and later versions):
C:Users[UserName]DocumentsCustom Office Templates
You will need to specify a path to the Custom Office Templates folder (which should be created automatically when you install Microsoft Office) in your Documents folder as the default storage location. If you want, you can select a different folder but this folder is easy to find and use.
To specify the default storage location for your custom user templates in Word 2013 and later versions:
- Create a folder in your Documents folder called Custom Office Templates if it does not already exist (assuming you are going to use this folder as the default personal templates location).
- In Word, click the File tab in the Ribbon.
- Click Options.
- In the left panel, click Save.
- Enter a path for the Default Personal Templates location (see the Options dialog box below).
- Click OK.
For example,
C:UsersNancyDocumentsCustom Office Templates
Note the path for the Default Personal Templates in the Options dialog box:
Some users may prefer to set the default personal templates location as the Templates or User Templates folder in the Appdata folder.
Creating a custom user template in Word
You can create your own custom user template by creating a document and then saving it as a template. If you have created a document based on an existing template, you can modify it and save it as a new template.
To save an existing document as a custom user template in the Custom Office Templates folder:
- In Word, click the File tab in the Ribbon.
- Select Save As.
- Enter a name for the template.
- Double-click This PC or Computer and then navigate to the Custom Office Templates folder (or the folder you specified as the default personal templates location).
- Select Word Template in the Save as type list. You can select Word Macro-Enabled Template if you have created macros in the file.
- Click Save.
Creating a new document based on a custom user template
If you have saved a template in the Custom Office Templates folder, you can easily create a new document based on that template.
To create a new document based on a custom user template you have created and saved in the Custom Office Templates folder:
- In Word, click the File tab in the Ribbon and then click New.
- In Word 2013 and later versions, click Personal. You must have set the file path in the Options dialog box first.
- If necessary double-click the Custom Office Templates folder.
- Double-click the desired template. Word creates a new document based on the template that you can modify.
Understanding the relationship between a Word document and its template
Every Microsoft Word document is based on a template. If you create a new, blank document, Word uses the Normal template.
When a Word document is created, it includes three elements from its template:
- Styles such as Normal, Heading 1, Heading 2 and so on
- Content such as text, tables and images
- Page settings such as margins, page breaks, section breaks, headers and footers
Once a document is created, it is no longer connected to its template so the styles, content and page settings can be modified or deleted.
A template also makes the following available in the document:
- Building Blocks such as QuickParts
- User interface customizations (including Ribbon customizations)
- Keyboard shortcuts
- Macros (if created) and the template was saved as a Macro-Enabled Template
Editing a custom user template
To edit a custom user template:
- In Word, click the File tab in the Ribbon and then click Open.
- Double-click This PC or Computer and navigate to the Custom Office Templates folder.
- Double-click the template you want to edit.
- Make changes to the template.
- Close and save the template.
Creating a document based on a Microsoft ready-made template
You can create new documents based on hundreds of Microsoft ready-made templates. These templates are normally accessed online so you must be connected to the internet to use them. There are templates for all kinds of documents including letters, brochures, flyers, reports and proposals. Templates may differ depending on your version of Microsoft Word.
To create a new document based on one of Microsoft’s ready-made templates:
- In Word, click the File tab in the Ribbon and click New.
- In the Office area, click the suggested searches or enter search criteria in the Search box and press Enter.
- Scroll through the templates.
- Double-click the template you want to use. Word creates a new document based on the template that you can modify.
In the following example, we selected New and then Business in the suggested searches (using Word 365):
Templates can be a huge timesaver, particularly if you are working on long documents like reports and proposals.

Шаблоны позволяют настраивать все необходимые параметры, которые Вы хотите предварительно применить к макету документов, стилям, форматированию, вкладкам, шаблону текста и т.д. Затем Вы можете легко создать новый документ на основе этого шаблона.
Когда Вы сохраняете документ в качестве шаблона, Вы можете использовать этот шаблон для создания новых документов. Эти новые документы содержат весь текст (и изображения и другой контент), которые содержит шаблон. Они также имеют одинаковые настройки, разделы и стили макета страницы в качестве шаблона. Шаблоны могут сэкономить Вам много времени, когда Вы создаете несколько документов, которые должны иметь согласованный макет, формат и некоторый текст шаблона.
Как сохранить документ в качестве шаблона
Первое, что Вам нужно сделать, — это создать свой документ так, как Вы хотите, чтобы выглядели новые документы. Разделите текст (и изображения и т. д.) вплоть до материала шаблона, который Вы хотите отображать в новых документах. Дальше настраивайте макет страницы (поля, разделы, столбцы и т. д.), а также любые форматирование и стили, которые Вы хотите использовать.
Когда у Вас есть документ, который Вам нужен, пришло время сохранить его в качестве шаблона. Откройте меню «Файл», а затем нажмите «Сохранить как».
Выберите, где Вы хотите сохранить документ.
После ввода имени для своего шаблона откройте раскрывающееся меню полем полем имени, а затем выберите параметр «Word Template (* .dotx)».
Нажмите кнопку «Сохранить».
Вы сохранили свой собственный шаблон Word.
Как создать новый документ на основе шаблона
После того как Вы сохранили свой собственный шаблон, Вы можете создать на его основе новые документы. Самый простой способ сделать это — просто запустить Word.
Его всплывающий экран показывает кучу шаблонов, которые являются встроенными или загружаемыми. В верхней части окна нажмите ссылку «ЛИЧНЫЕ», чтобы отобразить Ваши собственные шаблоны. Затем все, что Вам нужно сделать, это щелкнуть по нужному шаблону, и Word создает на его основе новый документ.
По умолчанию Word любит сохранять шаблоны в DocumentsCustom Office Templates, где они будут отображаться вместе с шаблонами, которые Вы создаете в любом другом приложении Office.
Когда Вы сохраняете шаблон, Вы можете выбрать другое местоположение, если хотите. Проблема в том, что если Вы сохраните его в другом месте, Word, возможно, не сможет его увидеть и отобразить на заставке в качестве опции. Если Вам это не очень важно, сохраните их в любом месте. Вы можете создать новый документ на основе шаблона, просто дважды щелкнув файл шаблона.
Вы также можете открыть шаблон в Word, чтобы его можно было отредактировать, щелкнув правой кнопкой мыши файл, а затем выбрав команду «Открыть» из контекстного меню.
Если Вам нужен еще более организованный подход, Вы можете изменить местоположение по умолчанию. Это позволяет сохранять шаблоны там, где Вы хотите (хотя они все еще должны находиться в одном месте) и иметь доступ к ним на заставке Word.
В меню «Файл» выберите команду «Параметры». В окне «Параметры Word» выберите категорию «Сохранение» слева. Справа введите путь, в котором Вы хотите сохранить шаблоны в поле «Расположение личных шаблонов по умолчанию». Нажмите «ОК», когда закончите.
В конце концов, шаблоны Word функционально похожи на обычные документы Word. Большая разница заключается в том, как Word обрабатывает эти файлы, что упрощает создание на их основе новых документов.

In our example, we’re going to be creating a project proposal and be using the MS Word template Project Proposal.

1. Contact Information
While this may be obvious, you’ll want to make sure that you include the appropriate contact information that’s on the first page. Nothing looks more unprofessional than forgetting to include this crucial information. So, before you even begin your proposal, type in the correct contact information.
2. Edit Spacing
While this MS Word template already comes with a professional layout, you may still want to add more space on the columns for your text. Each column and shape can be resized by simply clicking on the element and dragging the cursor to the desired size.
3. Change Colours
While the default blue colour may work for your particular business you may want to customise the colours to fit the brand identity. To change the colour of the shapes in the project head on to the Shading icon and choose your desired colour.
4. Add Images
To help illustrate a point, you may want to include images in the template. To place pictures in your template, click on the menu header and choose Insert > Pictures > Picture From File. From there, add any image from your computer.
5. Change the Thickness of Dividers
The design features many pages that have dividers to help segment the different sections on your pages. By default, these dividers are quite thin. If you need thicker dividers, click on the divider and adjust the width in the right-hand menu.
