    Default Page Options question

    Is there a way to save or default my page options...

    Page options are set to "cm"

    I want "inches"

    Thank you everyone.

    Use the following steps to change the default units in your default template. You can have different default units in different templates, so you can create as many templates with different units as you like or simply change the default units in templates you use regularly.

    1. Start a new file. XDP will create it using your default template.
    2. From the Utilities menu, select Options.
    3. In the Options palette, select the Units tab.
    4. Change Page units to Inches.
    5. On the File menu, select Save Template.

    6. Name your template before you save it.

    7. If you wish to have inches in your default template (the one that opens when the program starts or you select new document) check use as default template before you save

    Thanks, guys. As you probably noticed, I had added steps 6 and 7 in the graphic, but forgot to put them in the text of the post.
