To specify a new extension to be used for a new type of template:

4	Click the New button.

Enter a name for the new extension in the Short Name box. This is the name that will appear on the tab associated with this extension. The ampersand (&) can be used to specify a letter in the name on the tab that is underlined and can be used to move to that tab by pressing Alt and the specified letter. For example, type &ABC to produce the tab ABC or A&BC to produce the tab ABC.

6	Enter a description in the Description box.

The new tab will appear in the New Standard Document dialog after you exit and reopen Nota Bene.
