•If there are more different publications in your system, you may want to select the default typography before creating a new article. •Article templates are articles, containing specific empty text elements, formats, optional dummy images and/or also local geometry. You can use such template articles to create a new article as a duplicate of the template. Such article can be later dragged on a Fred4 page as a ready-made block. •It is not possible to preview the article templates. It is recommended to name article templates in the way they are easily recognizable, e.g. 2c1p200w may mean template on 2 columns, with 1 picture, 200 words capacity. |
