Default layout guides

[Nancy]

Is there a way to set the default layout guides so that any time I open
publisher they are preset?

Thanks!

You could create a template. Do your layout guides, save as Publisher template.

Ah yes I guess I could do that. I would like to just be able to open it and
have the layouts there though. I could have swore Id done this before though.
Changed the default seeings.

Thanks for the idea!

You might be remembering setting default text boxes.

Maybe it was on a much older version of publisher I did it with. I just know
it opened with the correct margins and even a text box with Airal font set
inside of it ready to go. . But its been a while.

I did find a decent fix. I just created the template as you suggested but a
shortcut directly to it. I'll just do a "save as" each time so as not to save
over it.

Thanks for the input and help!
