CorelDRAW Help | Create templates

Create templates

If the preset templates do not meet your needs, you can create your own templates, based on documents that you often use. For example, if you regularly put together a newsletter, you can save the page layout settings and styles to a template.

When you save a template, CorelDRAW allows you to add reference information, such as pagination, folds, and category. Although adding template information is optional, doing so makes it easier to organize and locate templates later on.

You can change the default location to which templates are saved. For more information, see Change content locations.

To create a template

1 .

Click File

Save as Template.

2 .

Type a name in the File name list box.

3 .

Locate the folder where you want to save the template.

4 .

Click Save.

5 .

In the Template properties dialog box, specify the options you want:

•

Title — Assign a name to your template. This name will appear with the thumbnail in the Templates pane.

•

Tags — Type keywords that you want to associate with the template. You can use these words to search for the template in the New from Template dialog box.

•

Sided — Choose a pagination option.

•

Folds — Choose a fold from the list.

•

Category — Choose a category to assign to the template. To assign a custom category, choose New category from the Category list box, and type the category name in the box.

If you click Cancel, you close the Template properties dialog box without saving the template.

If you don’t want to add reference information, click Save without specifying any of the options.

The features documented in the Help are available in the full version of CorelDRAW Graphics Suite 2020. Some features may not be available in this version of the product.
