Introduction Creating documents using existing templates saves time by establishing page settings, fonts, and styles for any content that may be used to form many documents. The template styles can be applied to any new or updated content that is inserted into the original or new document. New styles may be defined based upon existing ones within the template. There are not any restrictions, except that the Instructor Manual styles need to be marked as hidden within the Participant Guide template. The two templates, Instructor Manual Template.dotx and Participant Guide Template.dotx, are used to create the Unit content for the Instructor Manual and Participant Guide. First, you will create the Unit content with the Instructor Manual Template. Then, to create the Participant Guide, apply the Participant Guide Template; only the Participant Guide content will appear. However, this process does NOT: Change any content (e.g., You have to change “Instructor Manual” to “Participant Guide” manually). Permanently delete any content. (Instructor Manual content is marked as “hidden” in the Participant Guide.) Change anything in the matter or other materials not developed using the Instructor Manual template. Create or update a Table of Contents (TOC). The TOC is generated using the assigned Headings styles within the Instructor Manual template. Note: Essentially, a template is attached to the document, leaving only the information relevant to the participant. Once a modified template has been created, it can be attached to the document (via the instructions in this document) and once the “update styles” box is checked, it will automatically update the styles to match the template.
