Abstract:
Some embodiments provide a method that efficiently designs a document. The method provides the user with a selection of templates, each with a default configuration for content. The method provides the user with a selection of page designs to add to a selected template. The method adds a selected page design to a document that is based on the selected template. Some embodiments provide methods for modifying default content of template documents with default text fields. When a user selects a default text field, the method of some embodiments selects the entire default text field for editing by the user. In some embodiments, the method highlights a text field selected by the user. Also, in some embodiments, the method deletes the content of the text field when the user provides new content for the selected field. In some embodiments, the new content is text, image, or another type of content.
