Modifying template-based
documents
You can create a document based on a preset
template and then modify the document
without affecting the original template.
By making changes to the graphics, text, and
layout, you can create a new design to suit
your needs. The text and graphics consist of
individual objects or groups of objects, which
appear in the Object manager docker.
You can select, move, edit, or delete any of the
objects in your document. For more
information, see “Selecting, sizing, and
transforming objects” on page 37 and
“Coloring and styling objects” on page 38.
In addition, you can easily edit existing text or
replace it with your own.To edit paragraph text, use the Te x t tool.
After selecting the text, you can type new
text or change the font, size, color, and
other properties of the existing text.You can also change the page layout of your
document, add a background, or insert
additional pages. For more information, see
“Working with pages” on page 44.In the following examples, documents created
from preset templates are modified to create
