Library Templates

  • Links to Library Template Articles:
  • Currently uses the AceOffix Plug-In, the same as Edit-In-Cloud
    • This is free of charge and included in all UCM packages, however it does require IT involvement to install and certain internal policies do not allow for plug-ins.
    • In 2022, UCM will be getting a new Online Editor option that will NOT require a plug-in (AceOffix will still be available)
  • Benefits of Library Templates over "Classic" include being able to have Word Formatting like Headers, Footers, Page Numbers, etc., as well as being able to have other work on the Template outside the system, and then upload it in later when you are ready to use.
  • Currently requires the Template document to be uploaded to UCM, but with the new release of the online editor, you will be able to create a Library Template from scratch, just like a "Classic" Template, but using Word Formatting features instead of just a basic text editor box.
