Enjoy your beer and as this is not a matter of life and death I can wait until tomorrow morning. ----- Original Message ----- From: George Bell To: duxuser@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Thursday, May 05, 2005 1:05 PM Subject: [duxuser] Re: Making New Templates Hi Francis, This is a quickie, as it's 6pm here and time to go for a hard earned beer or three. I try to reply more fully later. Your Embosser and Printer settings will be saved with the Template, so make those changes before creating the Template.

Khan Sent: 05 May 2005 17:57 To: duxuser@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [duxuser] Re: Making New Templates Hi George: your instructions sound simple but before I go ahead, there are a couple of things I need to ask. With Version 10.5 one is able to include the paper size when doing the embosser setup from the documents menu. I plan to use narrow width paper for this purpose and at the moment my embosser margins are set at 5 on the lefthand side and 44 on the right. When I choose narrow width will DBT change my margins to reflect 30 characters or do I have to change them manually on the embosser? The other change is to have DBT leave a blank line in the middle of the page for folding. There is yet another code for leaving two blank lines on a page for an extra fold. Where do I find those codes?

Let's start with your letter heading Template. Open a new document in DBT. Create your letter heading as you want it. Don't worry if it is not perfect, as you can change it later. When you are happy with what you have, from the Document Menu, select "Create Template". In the "Create New template text box, replace "Untitled Template" with a name of your own and press OK. You will then be asked if you wish to save the Codes and Text with the Template. Select Yes. Close the document. Now, when you create a new document, you should find your Template Name in the list of Templates. George. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ From: duxuser-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:duxuser-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Francis E. Khan Sent: 05 May 2005 16:57 To: Duxuser Subject: [duxuser] Making New Templates Hello List Members: I am very interested in making new templates using DBT V.10.5. In particular, the letterhead template will cut down my work considerably as this will include my home and e-mail addresses as well as phone and fax numbers. A while back, someone did post a message on how this is done but a malfunction in my computer wiped out all messages I had saved in a special folder. Is there material I can look up or alternatively, I would appreciate help in creating the necessary steps to do this and to create things such as title pages or embossing Braille texts from about halfway down a page.
