No, it's absolutely correct, and it's wide-spread in the industry. InDesign and QuarkXPress use it as well, and I guess other DTP pograms do the same. The same goes for the German translation. > They are -not- templates. Exactly. We used to have the term "templates" in earlier versions, which caused a lot of confusion, so we changed it to the industry standard, which is "master pages"/"Musterseiten". > But something > you can coin / mould your pages with.

In German it could be "Mater", > a printing business term from the good old days for something > used as a mould. (Mater = lat: mother - of a page) Who uses "Mater" these days? I think the answer is no, as we use terms that most users are familiar with whenever possible. Regards Christoph -- GMX startet ShortView.de. Hier findest Du Leute mit Deinen Interessen!
