Hi Norbert,

You can convert a Fretspace document into stationery (a kind of template) by selecting it in the Finder, choosing **Get Info** from the **File** menu, and selecting the **Stationery pad** checkbox. After you’ve done that, double-clicking on it in the Finder will duplicate the document and open the duplicate in Fretspace.

What I tend to do more often is to open a document that I wish to use as a template (in Fretspace or any other application) and duplicate it using the **Duplicate** option in the **File** menu.
