Using and creating presets

Presets are scripts that define the behavior, properties, or settings of a dialog box or tool. Many dialog boxes and tools come with predefined, ready–to–use presets; however, you can also design and save your own presets. This is useful if you frequently use the same settings in a dialog box or with a tool. By using presets, you can save the settings and they'll appear in the Presets drop-list associated with that dialog box or tool.
