Creating a template or stationery

Most documents can be saved as or converted into a stationery pad, which is a template form of the document. The template retains its format and content, and you can use it repeatedly as a master for similar documents with different content.

Many programs let you save a document as a stationery pad when you choose Save or Save As. Click the stationery pad option to save your document as a template.

If the program you’re using does not offer a stationery pad option, you can use a document’s Info window to create a stationery pad.

1.Click the document icon to select it.

2.Choose Get Info from the File menu.

3.Click “Stationery pad” near the lower-right corner so that an X appears in the checkbox.
