How to create or customise your own document templates

Tips before starting to create your own document template

We recommend you type the text directly into the editor but if you plan to copy and paste the text, follow the instructions below:

Important: If you plan to copy and paste text into the MagManager editor, it must be plain text that's copied over.  DO NOT copy & paste directly from Word as hidden formatting is included (this is visable when viewing in code view).

From a PC - put your text into Notepad and copy it from there into the MagManager Editor

From a MAC - put your text into TextEdit. Click format and choose Make Plain Text. Copy the text from there into the MagManager Editor

 

Once the text is in the MagManager editor it can be formatted from there.
