## 8. The "Save Document As Template" dialog box

This dialog box is displayed by menu item Options → Customize Configuration → Save Document as Template. Basically, it allows the user to specify a name for the newly created document template.

The name of a document template may contain any character, including spaces.

The name of a document template may be identical to the name of one of the existing document templates. This allows to replace an existing document template by a new one.

In the above screen shot, we can see that:

- The user is creating a new document template called "`XMLmind Book`".

- Previously, the user has replaced predefined template called "`Refentry`" by a "`Refentry`" document template of its own.

- Previously, the user has created another document template called "`XMLmind article`".
