Figure 16-4: The Template Sheets folder is no longer a templates folder.
Working with the Document Templates Folder
Each project can contain only one Document Templates folder, named whatever you want. In the following sections, I show you how to remove the template designation from an existing templates folder and add it to a folder of your choosing.
If you already have a set of templates from another project that you want to copy over, you need to remove the existing folder’s Template Folder designation before you can assign a new template folder.
Removing the template folder designation
To remove the template folder designation, follow these steps:
1. Choose Project⇒Clear Templates Folder.
A warning window appears.
2. Read the warning spiel, and then click OK.
As shown in Figure 16-4, the Template Sheets folder loses its special icon, and the documents within lose the T that identified them as templates. The templates no longer appear in the Add menu.

Designating a templates folder
To designate a folder as the templates folder, follow these steps:
1. Select the desired folder.
2. Choose Project⇒Set Selection as Templates Folder.
The icon of the folder changes, and the documents in that folder get the small T that marks them as document templates.
3. Click the Add menu.
The document templates now appear on the list.
