Add your file to the Document Manager
You may have a file in one or another folder on your hard drive. You can add an alias to this file into
the Document Manager. The original continues to exist in its former location.
▶
Choose the menu command File > Add to Document Manager.
▶
Drag a file from any folder in the Finder into the Document Manager window.
Nisus Writer Pro creates an alias to the file on the top level of the folder you have designated as your
Document Manager folder, or into the custom group you may have added it.
The Add to Document Manager command has a submenu. You can choose to add an alias for the
active file to the All Managed Files group or the Style Library to a Folder Group or to a Custom
Group.
• Style Library
This makes any styles in the moved file available to any other files. Maintaining a Style Library
is explained in detail beginning on page 107.
• Templates
This makes the entire file available as a template (“.dot”). You can then open a copy of this file,
with all its current content, and it will open as Untitled. You can learn more about the Nisus
New File and other template documents in the section “Understanding Template (Stationery)
Documents” beginning on page 115.
