Creating documents, spreadsheets, and presentations


To create documents, spreadsheets, and presentations in Lotus Notes is very simple. We will show the steps to create documents; however, if we want to create a spreadsheet or presentation, we need to follow the same steps except selecting either spreadsheet or presentation.

Follow either one of the steps given next:

  • Go to the Home page and click the Documents icon in the screenshot or click the New button.

  • Select File | New | Document.

  • Click the Open button and then select Lotus Symphony Documents, Lotus Symphony Presentation, or Lotus Symphony Spreadsheet.

  • Select File | New | From Template | Document.

Note

By default the only template files installed with Lotus Notes are presentation templates. We can download template files from http://symphony.lotus.com/software/lotus/symphony/gallery.nsf/home or create our own.

The new document will open as a new window tab in Lotus Notes as circled in the following screenshot:
