Of course. Otherwise any change to a style you make would make all your
existing documents change their format. Is that what you would want?
No, not when you put it that way... BUT at least it could remember the
NEW styles I create. That wouldn't change any old documents, would it?
Hi Andy
It is possible to read styles from a template or other document into the
document you are currently working on.
If you are creating a new document, create it from the template that
contains the new styles you created. (You have to create the template
first by saving that document as template).
You can read the new styles you have created into an old document, too,
but you have to do this one document at a time (as far as I know). Here's
how:
- Open "Styles and Formatting" by pressing F11 or clicking the first icon
on the second row.
- Click the last icon on Styles and Formatting, and choose "Load Styles"
- Along the bottom of the dialogue box, select the types of styles you
would like to import (text, frame, pages, numbering). Check Overwrite if
you would like to replace any styles in your current document with the
styles you are importing if they have the same name.
- If your new styles are in a template, a list of templates are shown.
Choose the appropriate one. If your new styles are contained in a normal
document, click the "From File" button, and choose the appropriate
document.
I hope this email opens up some possibilities you haven't considered in
your word processing so far. Experiment and have fun!
