Chapter 2 Creating a Document Using the Pages Templates 37
When you have selected a template, a new document opens on your screen.
If you don’t see the Template Chooser when you first open Pages, you can make it
appear by setting a preference in Pages preferences. Alternatively, you can set Pages
to automatically open a Blank document or the document template of your choice
every time you open it.
To make the Template Chooser always appear when you open Pages:
m Choose Pages > Preferences, click General, and then select “For New
Documents: Show Template Chooser dialog.”
To always open the same kind of document when you open Pages:
m Choose Pages > Preferences, click General, and select “For New Documents: Use
template: [template name],” and then click Choose. Select a template name, and then
click Choose.
Expanding Your Document
Each page of a Pages template has a unique design. You can choose to use the page
designs that are previewed when the document first opens. Or, if the page designs
don’t meet your needs, you can choose from additional designs that fit the template.
