Managing Notebook Pages and Files
Notebook software lets you control the look and organization of the pages in your Notebook
file, as well as the organization of the entire file. For example, you can:
• hide your page content with the screen shade, which is especially useful for
presentations and lessons (page 24)
• change the background color of specific pages
• customize your pages with templates. You can access these templates individually or
through the Gallery. Also, you can create your own templates and save them for
repeated use.
• correct mistakes using the Undo and Redo commands
• save the file in a variety of formats, including a series of images or HTML files, or as a
PDF file
• print your file or specific pages from your file
Notebook software includes the Gallery (page 22), which contains collections of page
templates and pictures that you can insert on a page. For example, a teacher might store
commonly used templates and pictures for a math class in a Math collection and physics
templates and pictures in a Science collection.
For more information on Notebook files and pages, see Working with Notebook Files or
Working with Notebook Pages in the Notebook software Help.
You can change the color of your current page by selecting Format > Background Color and
then selecting a color square from the palette that appears.
You can preserve a commonly used page layout by saving it as a template. Do this by
selecting File > Save Page as Template. If the file that you’re saving has more than one page
in it, SMART Board software saves only the current page as a template. After you save the file,
you can insert it on any page in any Notebook file.
Select Insert > Select Template. Select a template (in .xbt format) and press the Insert
button for it to appear on your current page. When you insert a page template, it becomes your
current template, which appears whenever you select Insert > Current Template.
