Document Templates

Document Templates

A Document Template is a document that Atlantis can automatically use for creating new documents.

All document templates should be stored within the Templates folder under the home folder of Atlantis.

You can easily open the desired document template for viewing or editing. To do this, choose the Document Templates... command from the File menu.
A window containing the list of available document templates, pops up:

Double-click the desired document template. Atlantis will open a new window containing this document template.
Make the necessary changes to this document template, and simply save it.

 

By default Atlantis uses the Normal template for creating new RTF documents. The Plain template is used by default for creating a new or opening existing plain text (TXT) document.

Tip:

If the Always Show Templates Window option (the Tools | Options... command, General tab) is on, Atlantis will always show the Create Document From Template window each time you choose the File | New | Document command or press the Ctrl+N keys.
If this option is off, Atlantis will create a new document of the Default Format for New Documents (the document template associated with this document format, will be used).

So if you often create documents that are based on different document templates, we recommend you turn this option on.
