Results

A template you create by copying a template appears in the list of Word or HTML

templates. The initial name of the copy in the list of templates is Copy of ORIGINAL,

where ORIGINAL is the name of the template that you copied. The name in the list is not

the file name you used when you saved the copy.

To change the template name that appears in the list of templates, in the Template

Properties dialog box, specify the name in the Display name field. For details, see “Set

Conversion Template Properties” on page 6-15.
