68 CHAPTER 3 PageMaker Plug-in Pack Features To change size of template thumbnails: Choose Thumbnail Size from the palette menu, and then choose Small Thumbnail, Medium Thumbnail, Large Thumbnail, or Details. (Details displays a large thumbnail plus information about the template.) Opening templates in InDesign When you open a template, an untitled copy appears and the Template Browser palette closes. You can work in the untitled copy just as you work in any other document. To open a template from the Template Browser palette: Do one of the following: • Double-click a template. • Select a template, and then choose New Document from Template from the Template Browser palette menu. Note: If you don't want the palette to close automatically, deselect Close Palette After Opening Template from the palette menu. Working with the Metadata area You can add metadata to a new template or edit the metadata stored with an existing template. When you create a new template, you can use the Metadata area of the Template Browser palette to add descriptive information about the contents of the document. For existing templates, most of the metadata that appears in the Metadata area is view-only; however, there are a few editable metadata fields, such as Author, Description, Production Notes, and Keyword. Editable fields appear with a text box for adding or changing the metadata information. Note: The Metadata area includes information on the fonts and color swatches that are used in the file. Make sure that the proper fonts are installed. The information you add is embedded in the file using XMP (eXtensible Metadata Platform). XMP facilitates the exchange of metadata between Adobe applications and across publishing workflows. Metadata area of the Template Browser palette To edit a template's metadata in the Template Browser palette: 1 Select a template. 2 Click the metadata field you want to edit and add the metadata information. 3 When you are finished, click the Accept Edits button .
