To edit a document template, use these steps:

2.     Select Options | Edit Templates (Option | Edit Shard Templates to edit shared)

If the Templates drawer (Notes tab) is open, right-click in the drawer, and select Edit Templates.

 

3.     Find the template you want to edit.

a.    Click the plus sign next to an item to see the objects under it.

b.    Select the template you want to edit.

 

4.     Make any desired changes, such as the following, for example:

o      Type in more text.

o      Add Template Fields

o      Change the template name

o      Move the template to a different location.

o      Make the template inactive if you don't want it seen in the template drawer.
