Creating a new default template
Using the default template, you can apply document-level defaults to control settings in documents as a whole. You can apply object-level defaults to the default template to control settings for selected objects.
To create a new default template:
1 |
Choose File > New. |
2 |
Modify the document. |
For example, you can change the page size, default colors in the color list, default font size, and magnification, and save these with the template. |
|
3 |
Choose File > Save As. |
4 |
Choose the FreeHand Template format from the Save as Type pop-up menu (Windows) or FreeHand Template from the Format pop-up menu (Macintosh).
|
5 |
Name the file and save it in the English folder within the FreeHand application folder. In Windows, an FT10 extension is added to the file name. |
Note: To ensure that the template file name matches the default template name, choose Edit > Preferences, click Document, and verify that the name entered under New Document Template matches the file name you just saved. |
