This chapter describes the use of LibreOffice’s template management features.


In Writer, you can create templates for master documents as well as for ordinary documents. See “ Setting a default template” on page 1. If you have not specified a default template, Writer uses the built-in blank template for text documents that is installed with LibreOffice. If you do not choose a template when you start a new Writer document, then the document is based on the default template for text documents. You can create, or download and install, as many templates as you wish, and you can set a default template for each type of document (text, spreadsheet, drawing, presentation). Templates can contain anything that regular documents can contain, such as text, graphics, a set of styles, and user-specific setup information such as measurement units, language, the default printer, and toolbar and menu customization.Īll documents in LibreOffice are based on templates. New documents created from this template will all have your company’s logo on the first page. For example, you can create a template for business reports that has your company’s logo on the first page. For a detailed list, see the application Help.Ĭontrol+click or right-click depending on computer setupĪ template is a model document that you use to create other documents.
