Create new Default Template

[ricq]

Having difficulty creating a new default template. I opened the Normal Template, changed font and size, saved it as ".tmvz" file with different name, and it shows up in the template list when I select File>New. However, nothing has changed from the Normal template when I click the new template.
Any suggestions welcome

Make sure you open the one for your language
1. File | Open
2. Browser for Documents\SoftMaker\TextMaker NX templates\
3. Open the correct languague
4. Make your changes
5. Save

Miguel, changing templates is something VERY important that I believe should be on the website or as a Superpost in the forum. Many users including myself were never aware of templates and by changing the main template to the setting we like such as font, zoom, spacing, etc, any new documents we open will inherit those settings automatically.

I have found that as long as you click on the position of the text cursor at the beginning of the page BEFORE you change the font and/or size then save it as 'your name'.tmvz, then when you create a new file using that template, you should find the new font/size, etc is applied. Not clicking on the text cursor before changing the font often leads to no apparent change when saving the new template
