Your workspace comes preloaded with professionally designed templates for you to use, but you can also create your own and save them to your Library so that other members of your workspace can use your templates as well.
Creating a template
There are three ways to create a new template in Pitch:
From the editor
Click the presentation menu above the slide navigator and select the Convert to template option. Give your new template a name, then click Convert to template.
From your workspace
Navigate to the presentation you want to turn into a template and click the options icon. Select Convert to template, give your new template a title, and then click Convert to template.
From the Library
Navigate to the Templates folder in your Library. There you can see all existing templates within the workspace.
To create a new one, select + New Template and give your new template a name. You can either choose to build a branded template from scratch, or customize one of the existing templates from our gallery.
If you choose to build a branded template, you’ll have the option of selecting your brand colors and uploading fonts without needing to create a whole new style.
Select your brand colors and fonts, and upload any custom fonts you want available in the template.
Once you’ve aligned your template with your brand, select Choose slides to easily add a variety of slides in different categories from our Layouts tab.
Editing and using your template
Once you’ve created your own template, you can edit it from the Library folder. Open the presentation menu, then click on Edit original template to get started.
Edits made to a template will be included in presentations created with it moving forward. When you edit a template in the Library, you'll get a quick reminder that what you're working on isn't a single presentation.
This will open the template editor where you can make all the edits you need. Hit Publish at the top of the page after editing your template to save your changes.
Your template will now appear in the template picker under Library templates when workspace members create a new presentation or choose Start with template.
