I want to use a template that I used in another project, but it's unclear to me how to properly export it from another project and import into this one.


Solution

  • You can export and import templates using the Reference Data Import/Export feature.

    Export

    Configure | Model | Transfer | Export Reference Data

    enter image description here

    Select the the templates you want to export.

    Import

    Configure | Model | Transfer | Import Reference Data

    enter image description here

    Make sure to select the Document Templates dataset to import.

    MDG file

    An alternative to this import/export is to include the templates in an MDG technology file. See the manual for more info.
