Reply To: Load ALL STYLES at once… is it possible?

Matt, you can also do this:

1. Open your 'base' document.
2. Delete all text and all pages but one. You can leave a single text box on the first page, filled with some placeholder text to show the paragraph styles, for easier identification.
3. Save As — then select “Format” -> InDesign Template.
4. When you need a new document, open the template — by default, ID creates an Untitled new document, containing all of the styles etc.
5. If you find you are always changing the same thing in your new documents, you can edit the template by opening it and checking “Open Original” in the Open dialog.
