Opening a package file
Templates can also be stored in a package file (see "Sharing a template" on page361). To
open a package file, switch the file type to Package files (*.OL-package) in the Open File
dialog. When the package contains print presets, you will be asked if you want to import them
into the proper repositories.
Saving a template
A Designer template file has the extension .OL-template. It is a zip file that includes up to 3
contexts, all the related resources and scripts, and (optionally) a link to a Data Mapping
Configuration.
To save a template for the first time, select File > Save as. After that you can save the template
by selecting File > Save or pressing Ctrl+S.
Tip
To quickly copy the name of any other file, set Save as type to Any file (*.*) in the Save dialog.
Select a file to put its name in the File name field. Then set Save as type to Template files (*.OL-
template) and save the template.
When more than one resource (template or data mapping configuration) is open and the
Designer software is closed, the Save Resources dialog appears. This dialog displays a list of
all open resources with their names and file location. Selected resources will be saved,
deselected resources will have all their changes since they were last saved dismissed.
Saving older templates
Saving a template in a newer version of the software will convert the template to the newest file
format. This makes it unreadable to older versions of the software.
The warning message that is displayed in this case can be disabled.
To re-enable this message (and all other warning dialogs), go to Window > Preferences >
General, and click the Reset All Warning Dialogs button at the bottom.
Associated data mapping configuration
When you save a template, any data mapping configuration that is currently open will be
associated with the template by saving a link to the data mapping configuration in the template
