saving text styles on a file?


Recommended Posts

RIght now there is an option to "import styles..."  in the text styles pannel options menu. So I'm assuming there is or there should be an option to save text styles on a file, but I can't find it. Is there such option yet? If there is no, I think it would be great to have that ability for the sake of convenience. With each update, all interface things get a reset. So having an option to restore styles from a file would be useful, as well as restoring the entire UI layout.

The Text Styles are saved in each document. I set up a document the way I want it to be and save the blank file then lock it so I can just open it and save it as a copy. What we both want are Templates and that is not possible at the moment, a grave omission in my opinion. You'll have to just keep working the way you are right now.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.

You could save a doc as a template and use it for your new job as @Old Bruce suggested or you could save a Publisher document with all the styles you need and then simply import these styles to your new document. The Import Styles ... command will allow you to import the styles from any Publisher document.
