Getting Started 17
Instead of a design template, you
can adopt a Theme Layout
instead; layouts offer picture
placeholders instead of actual
pictures. Different physical
document types (Brochure,
Business Cards, Flyer, Newsletter,
etc.) can be created from a chosen
theme (e.g., Arctic), each type
offering a choice of
complementary multiple page
designs.
Once selected, the publication is normally all but complete apart from adding
your own pictures to placeholders, personalizing placeholder text, or fine-tuning
object positioning.
To create a publication from a design template:
1. Open PagePlus, or choose New... from the File menu and select New
from Startup Wizard....
2. Click Use Design Template to display the Choose a Design Template
dialog.
3. In the tree menu on the left, select either the "Templates by Type"
(shown below) or "Templates by Use" category.
4. Navigate the menu's categories, select one, then click a chosen
document type's thumbnail.
