Re: [libreoffice-users] Managing Templates in Writer

Hi :)
Have you found the guides on
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/Publications
or just using the in-built help?  Both do lag a bit but the wiki-pages's Getting Started Guide is 
for the 4.0.0.  The chapters are all done but people are still proof-reading the full book.

Did you manage to solve the templates issue?  
Regards from
Tom :)
