Presets in InDesign CS

[gcbryson]

Hi

Apologies if this has been asked before. Does anyone know if it is possible to create a document preset from and existing document. When I click File > Document Presets > Define > New I have to fill in all the settings again.

Many thanks in advance

Did you do it without a document open??

I set up a new document with various settings - e.g number of pages, columns, bleed etc but didn't save these as a preset. While the document was open I tried to save the settings as a document present but it would appear you have to complete the set up again.

I haven't been able to find a way of saving presets from a currently open document which leads me to believe you can't.

Any adice to the contrary would be welcome.

Thanks

George
