Use document templates
Templates are useful starting points for standard documents because you can preset them with layout, graphics, and
text. For example, if you prepare a monthly magazine, you can create a template that contains the layout of a typical
issue, including ruler guides, grids, master pages, custom styles and swatches, placeholder frames, layers, and any
standard graphics or text. That way you can simply open the template each month and import new content.
You create a template the same way you create a regular document; the only difference occurs when you save the
document. When you prepare a template for others to use, you may want to add a layer containing instructions about
the template; hide or delete the layer before printing the document. See
Layers .
Note: For Chinese versions of InDesign, you can open specially designed templates that include custom mojikumi sets.

or reject changes. See
