[Xerte] New user - template question

[Ron Mitchell]

Hi

I think everyone on this list would agree - great set of tools!

 

I'd be interested to know where you've found the "
TechDis_Xerte_Presentation_Template.xtp" (links?) as that's quite old now
and isn't really needed anymore.

 

If you're using Xerte rather than XOT you can access the 'Page Templates'
template from the Templates menu. See screenshot here:
http://mitchellmedia.co.uk/img/tgrab-Rv.png just Start Xerte, select that
menu and you'll be prompted to choose where to save the LO. You'll also see
a 'presentation' template listed there too but that's not the same as the
early TechDis template. If you have found online info re the TechDis
template please send links in a reply. I've recently developed a new page
type which provides 85% of the functionality we had in that older template
and will work with both Xerte and XOT - I just need to find time to document
that and make it available somewhere.

 

You might also want to look at the page wizards which is another way of
working with Xerte

Hello there,

 

Firstly, GREAT set of tools! Finding it an excellent product to use. 

 

Quick question: I've tried to install both the "Page Templates.xtp" and
"TechDis_Xerte_Presentation_Template.xtp" templates.

Both give me an "invalid file format" error during the install. I'm using
the standalone 2.12 version using the default windows install.

 

Any help would be appreciated!

 

 

Love & Support,
