3. Type the number of revisions to keep.
4. Select the directory in which the backups should be stored.
Backup files have the same name as the original template with two underscores and a
progressive number (without leading zeros) at the end: originalname__1.OL-template,
originalname__2.OL-template, etc.
Note
The Auto Save function does not cause backup files to be created.

Saving a copy / down-saving a template
The Connect software is backwards compatible: templates that were made with an older
version of Connect can always be opened with the newest version of the software.
But newer templates cannot be opened with an older version of the software.
Connect, however, allows you to save a template in the format of a previous version of the
software, so that you may restore a template that was accidentally opened and saved in a
newer version, or share a template with users of a previous version of Connect.
Note that it may not always be possible to down-save a template. If a template uses a feature
that did not exist in a certain older version, it won't be possible to down-save it to that older
version.
To down-save a template, select File > Save a Copy, from the menu. Select the software
version and click OK. Next you can select a location and give the template a name, as usual.
To save a copy, follow the same procedure without selecting a previous version of the
software.
