The Studio Pack templates take advantage of WordPerfect’s macro features to automate the process of customizing the templates. When you open them in WordPerfect, they will walk you through the process of basic customization. In Word or Ami Pro (found in Lotus SmartSuite), the automated prompts appear in the imported documents as caretted prompts with descriptive names: e.g. ““. In these other word processors, you simply search for a left caret to find the first prompt, highlight it (including both carets), then click Edit, Replace, and insert your replacement text (“Susie’s Piano Studio” in the example above), then click Replace All, once you’re certain it’s right. The word processor will replace all occurrences of that prompt with your studio information. Repeat this process until all the caretted prompts are replaced. This takes slightly longer, but works just as well as the automated process in WordPerfect. This whole process is explained in more detail in the SPNONWP.I
