Can I copy formatting from a template to many docs?
Or maybe someone can suggest an alternative solution. Here's my situation:
I have several large documents with many sections each. They are set up correctly using styles for most formatting (headings, normal text, etc.). I want to reformat all of them to use the styles and layout I've created in a separate template document. Specifically, I want to replace the page layouts (margins), and paragraph styles (normal, headings, etc.) with the ones I've created in the template. I'm hoping I can just copy the styles from the template doc over to each of these documents. What I don't want to do, because it will be a lot of work, is copy the text over, piece by piece, and paste it into my new template doc. Any suggestions? Thanks, Colin |
