<p class="Paragraph">You can set a global configuration (so that it applies to all documents of this type), or you can connect the configuration to a specific document, which must exist as a file.</p>
<ol class="L1">
<li class="">
<p class="P2">Load the document you want to connect to the configuration or open any document of the same type.</p>
</li>
<li class="">
<p class="P2"><span class="T1">Set the configuration. For example, select the Toolbars you want to be visible or define the Toolbar assignment, menu or Status Bar items, etc. All configuration-setting options are in the Tools - AutoFit... dialog.</span></p>
</li>
<li class="">
<p class="P2">Click <span class="T1">Save...</span> in the <span class="T1">Tools - AutoFit...</span> dialog. Another dialog appears in which you can save the configuration.</p>
</li>
<li class="">
<p class="P2">In the <span class="T1">File Type</span> list box, select <All>.</p>
</li>
<li class="">
<p class="P2">In the large list box of the Save dialog, select the file you want to connect to the configuration.</p>
</li>
<li class="">
<p class="P2">Click <span class="T1">Save</span>. A prompt appears, asking whether you want to replace the file or not. This query concerns only the configuration connected to the document, not the "actual" contents of the document.</p>
</li>
<li class="">
<p class="P2">Confirm overwrite.</p>
</li>
</ol>
<p class="Paragraph">The configuration is now connected to the active document. You can check this by loading the document and opening the File - Document Template - Organizer dialog, then double-clicking the document.</p>
<p class="Paragraph">As soon as you load or open this document, it switches to the saved configuration. The global default configuration are restored if you load or open another document that does not contain custom configuration information. You can select manual settings at any time by opening the <span class="T1">Tools - AutoFit...</span> dialog and clicking the <span class="T1">Reset</span> button.</p>
