Here’s a quick and simple guide to creating a template in Adobe InDesign:
- To create template in Adobe InDesign, use the Pages panel to set up Master Pages (also called Parent Pages) for recurring elements such as headers, footers, and page numbers.
- Use Paragraph Styles to apply consistent formatting to entire paragraphs, including alignment, spacing, indents, and other paragraph attributes.
- Use Character Styles to apply consistent text formatting, such as font, size, color, and other text attributes, across your document
- Use placeholder frames for images and text by going to 'Type' → 'Placeholder Text.'
- Now save your file by going to 'File' → 'Save As,' and choose InDesign Template (.indt) to prevent overwriting your original document.
