Save all open documents

1

Select File > Save All.

2

If there are any unsaved documents open, the Save As dialog box is displayed for each unsaved document.

In the dialog box that appears, navigate to the folder where you want to save the file.

3

In the File Name box, type a name for the file and click Save.

Revert to the last saved version of a document

1

Select File > Revert.

A dialog box asks if you want to discard your changes, and revert to the previously saved version.

2

Click Yes to revert to the previous version; click No to keep your changes.

Note: If you save a document, and then exit Dreamweaver, you cannot revert to the previous version of the document
when you restart Dreamweaver.

Set default document type and encoding

You can define which document type is used as a default document for a site.

For example, if most pages in your site are of a specific file type (such as Cold Fusion, HTML, or ASP documents), you
can set document preferences that automatically create new documents of the specified file type.

1

Select Edit > Preferences (Windows) or Dreamweaver > Preferences (Macintosh).

You can also click the Preferences button in the New Document dialog box to set new document preferences when
you create a new document.

2

Click New Document from the category list on the left.

3

Set or change preferences as necessary, and click OK to save them.

Default Document

Select a document type that will be used for pages that you create.

Default Extension

Specify the file extension you prefer (.htm or .html) for new HTML pages you create.

Note: This option is disabled for other file types.

Default Document Type (DDT)

Select one of the XHTML document type definitions (DTD) to make new pages

XHTML-compliant. For example, you can make an HTML document XHTML-compliant by selecting XHTML 1.0
Transitional or XHTML 1.0 Strict from the menu.

Default Encoding

Specify the encoding to be used when a new page is created, as well as when a document is opened

that does not specify any encoding.

If you select Unicode (UTF-8) as the document encoding, entity encoding is not necessary because UTF-8 can safely
represent all characters. If you select another document encoding, entity encoding may be necessary to represent
certain characters. For more information on character entities, see

www.w3.org/TR/REC-

html40/sgml/entities.html

.

If you select Unicode (UTF-8) as a default encoding, you can include a Byte Order Mark (BOM) in the document
by selecting the Include Unicode Signature (BOM) option.

A BOM is 2-4 bytes at the beginning of a text file that identifies a file as Unicode, as well as the byte order of the
following bytes. Because UTF-8 has no byte order, adding a UTF-8 BOM is optional. For UTF-16 and UTF-32, it is
required.

Unicode Normalization Form

Select one of these options if you select Unicode (UTF-8) as a default encoding.
