Click the project name at the top of the window and choose Templates.
The page opens on the Templates tab of Project settings. BUILT-IN lists the eight templates that come with OpenFrame. YOURS and THIS PROJECT are empty and say how to fill them. At the bottom: Templates are optional. Every document can also start blank.
Read the kind and description under each name.
