Documents and Templates

Whether you are creating reference materials, working on your next novel or paper, or simply gathering your thoughts, you can use OmniOutliner Documents as the foundation for your next project, and OmniOutliner Templates as the foundation for all your documents.

Documents

Documents allow you to quickly capture your thoughts, organize them into a logical structure, import existing material, export to other formats, or print your latest project.

On Mac, use the New or New from Template commands in the File Menu.

On iPad, iPhone, and Apple Vision Pro, tap the New Outline or Create Document button in the Document Manager, and then choose between New Outline or New from Template.

You can read about the Template Picker to learn more about working with Templates.

Opening Documents

Documents are files that OmniOutliner can open, edit, save, and print.

OmniOutliner 6 supports the following document types:

On Mac, use the Open or Open Recent commands in the File Menu, and choose a document for editing.

On iPad, iPhone, and Apple Vision Pro, tap a document in the Document Manager to open it for editing.

Importing to OmniOutliner

In addition to opening OmniOutliner documents, OmniOutliner 6 can import several types of files; this leaves the original file in place, and creates a new OmniOutliner Document.

On Mac, use the Open command in the File Menu to import one of the following file types:

On iPad, iPhone, and Apple Vision Pro, tap a file in the Document Manager to import one of the following file types:

Saving Documents

Exporting from OmniOutliner

If you need to share your OmniOutliner Document with somebody who doesn’t use OmniOutliner, you can select from a wide range of file types.

On Mac, use the Export… command in the File Menu to export one of the following file types:

On iPad, iPhone, and Apple Vision Pro, there are several ways to export:

You can then select one of the following file types, and choose a destination for the export:

Templates

A template is an OmniOutliner document, which has been saved with a special file extension (.otemplate), and which can be used to quickly create new documents. These documents will use the same Theme as the template, and pre-populate with any template contents.

Template Picker

The Template Picker presents each time you use the New or New from Template… commands on Mac, or tap the New from Template button on iPad, iPhone, or Apple Vision Pro.

The center part of the Template Picker allows you to select from a range of Omni-created Built-In Templates, in addition to any Custom Templates stored in a Connected Folder you have configured to Use For templates.

The sidebar contains options for filtering the available templates:

• All Templates — Displays all available templates.
• Custom — Displays templates stored in Connected Folders. Select Custom to display all templates, or select a folder to limit the display.
• Built-In — Displays all built-in templates. Select Built-In to display all templates, or select a category to limit the display.

The toolbar contains additional options:

• Menu — Contains Manage Connected Folders, which you can use to configure the Use For options for templates.
• Sidebar — Shows or hides the Template Picker sidebar.
• Palette — Filters templates to display only Dynamic, Light, or Dark–themed templates. Note that Built-In Templates support all three options, but your selection will determine the new document’s Dynamic Theme setting.

Touch and hold or Control + click on a template to display a menu containing one or more of these options:

• Show in Files — Display the selected template in Files app on iPad, iPhone, or Apple Vision Pro. Only available for Custom Templates.
• Show in Finder — Display the selected template in the Finder on Mac. Only available for Custom Templates.
• Make Default — Use this template for documents created using the New command on Mac or iPad, or by tapping on the New Outline button on iPad, iPhone, or Apple Vision Pro.
• Edit — Edit the selected template. Only available for Custom Templates.
• Edit a Copy — Make a copy of the selected template, and open the copy for editing.

Built-in Templates

Custom Templates

If you have a document styled just so and would like to preserve its style setup for future use, you can save it as a template (File > Save As Template). This creates an .otemplate file version of the document, and makes it available as a template from the Template Picker in the Templates section.

Printing

There are times that nothing beats a paper copy of your document, so OmniOutliner supports printing from Mac, iPad, iPhone, and Apple Vision Pro.

On Mac:

• Select Print from the File Menu, or press Command+P.

You can customize your printout when Printing from Mac.

On iPad, Apple Vision Pro:

1. Tap the Document Title Menu.
2. Select Print.

On iPhone:

1. Tap the More button.
2. Tap the Share button.
3. Select Print.

The Print window will show you a preview of your document to review before printing.

If you would like to learn more about printing from Apple devices, read these Apple User Guide articles:

Printing from Mac

On Mac, additional options are available under the Content, Headers & Footers, and Margins sections of the Print dialog.

The preview of your document will update as you modify options in the Print dialog, providing an easy way to see what happens as you change settings. If you would like a preview, click the PDF pop-up menu, then select Open in Preview.

Content Options

Content options allows you to configure which information is printed, as well as how it is displayed.

Options that control which rows (and notes) are included in your printout:

• Print selected rows only — Only the selected rows are included.
• Filter rows by status checkbox — Only rows that are checked or unchecked are included. If the rows are part of a group, any enclosing rows will also be included.
• Expand to show all descendants — Automatically expand groups, so all contained rows are visible in the printout.
• Flatten indentation — Remove indentation from the printout, so that all rows have the same initial alignment.
• Include notes — Select between printing notes that are currently visible as shown in document, or print all notes in the document by selecting expanded.

Options that control how the entire document displays:

• Scale to fit page width — Columns are scaled to fit on a single page. With this option unchecked, the printout matches OmniOutliner, so you may need to manually adjust page breaks. When you adjust a column or window, a dashed line displays to indicate where the page break will occur.
• Print column titles — Only applies if Column Headers are set to Show or Automatic.
• Print row handles — Only applies if Row Handles are set to Always show.
• Print alternate row colors — If an Alternate Row color has been set, it will be included.
• Print other background colors — Other background colors will be printed, such as those applied by a Highlight style.

Headers and Footers

Headers and Footers options allow you to add details about your document to the top and bottom of each page of your printout.

Select an option from the pop-up menu at the top of the section to apply the headers and footers to:

• Master Page — All pages of the printout, unless another option applies to a given page.
• First Page — Only the first page of your printout.
• Odd Pages — All odd pages of your printout.
• Even Pages — All even pages of your printout.

The six boxes below are grouped in two sets, representing the left, center, and right positions on the page, with a top row for headers, and a bottom row for footers.

Click in a given box, and use the Insert pop-up menu below the row to insert one or more of the following:

• Page Number — Current page number.
• Section Title — If a Focus is applied, the name of the focused row; if no focus is applied, the document name.
• Last Modification Time — Date and time document was last updated.
• Page Count — Number of pages in the document.
• Document Title — By default, the same as the document name. Documents created by OmniOutliner 3 for Mac and earlier may have a separate document title.
• Document Name — Name assigned to the file when it is saved or renamed, and which appears in the document Toolbar.
• Print Time — Date and time document is printed.

Margins

Margin options allow you to control the appearance of your document within the bounds of a printed page.

To adjust any of the margin values, click into a field and enter a new distance, or click arrows to the right of the field to increase or decrease the value.

• Top of page to header — Distance between the top edge of the page and the header. Should be smaller than the distance to the content.
• Top of page to content — Distance between the top edge of the page and the content. Should be larger than the distance to the header.
• Left margin — Distance between the left edge of the page and the content.
• Right margin — Distance between the right edge of the page and the content.
• Content to bottom of page — Distance between the bottom edge of the page and the content. Should be larger than the distance to the header.
• Footer to bottom of page — Distance between the bottom edge of the page and the footer. Should be smaller than the distance to the content.

Document Manager

When you first launch OmniOutliner on iPad, iPhone, or Apple Vision Pro, you arrive at the Document Manager, where you can open an existing file or create a new one from scratch.

The document manager provides access to the OmniOutliner folder in iCloud Drive, On My iPad, On My iPhone, and On My Apple Vision Pro, in addition to files and folders from other applications.

If you have Configured OmniPresence, synced files and folders are available inside the OmniOutliner folder in On My iPad, On My iPhone, or On My Apple Vision Pro.

To learn more about the document manager in OmniOutliner, which is part of the Files app, please review these Apple User Guide articles:

• Files basics for iPad
• Files basics for iPhone
• View, modify, and organize files and folders in Files on Apple Vision Pro

Recents

Tap Recents to display recently opened files in a flat list, sorted by date from most to least recently opened, from all available locations on this device.

If you looking for a file that does not display in Recents, tap the button to search your device, or switch to the Browse view.

Browse

Tap Browse to display the locations and folders stored on your device, or in any connected cloud services.

In Regular View, the Sidebar contains a Locations section, in addition to sections for Favorites and Tags. If the Sidebar is not visible, tap the button.

In Compact View, the Sidebar is visible by tapping the button.

Locations

The Locations list displays storage locations on your device.

This includes:

• iCloud Drive, as long as the device is signed in to your Apple Account.
• On My Device (On My iPad, On My iPhone, or On My Apple Vision Pro), containing files which are stored locally rather than in the cloud.
• Other Cloud Services which are configured on your device.
• Recently Deleted, listing deleted files for quick retrieval.

Recently Deleted

If you delete an OmniOutliner file, that file is moved to the Recently Deleted folder in the Locations list.

To manage files in the Recently Deleted folder, tap Select in the upper right and tap the thumbnails for each file you would like to manage. Options appear at the bottom of the screen to either Recover the files, returning them to their previous location, or Delete the selected files permanently.

Note that files stored with some cloud storage providers may be permanently deleted immediately instead of moving to Recently Deleted first. Because these recovery standards differ, it’s a good idea to always take care when deleting files.

Beneath the list of available locations is a list of Tags. Tap a tag in the list to view all of the items with that tag applied; you can apply tags to individual files using their contextual menu (see File Details below).

Finally, the More button at the top of the Locations list provides additional functions for modifying the contents of the list.

• Connect to Server—Choose a server to connect to via SMB, adding it as a location in a separate Shared section of the Locations list.
• Edit—Switch the list to Edit mode, where you can rearrange locations and tags, and choose which locations you want to be visible in the list. Note that changes made here apply to the Locations list everywhere it appears, including the Files app and other apps that use the iOS document browser.

Browsing a Location

Upon selecting a location in the Locations list, its contents appear in a pane to the right (this pane appears on top of the Locations list when in compact views).

A search field at the top of the pane offers options to search recently opened files, the entire current location, or just the current folder for filenames that match the search terms.

Drag down on the browsing pane to access more controls for the location, choose how files are sorted, and switch between thumbnail and list views.

Toolbar

When viewing a location, the toolbar across the top of the screen will include some or all of these buttons:

• On the leading edge of the toolbar is the Back button. Tap to go up in the folder hierarchy, or return to the Locations list.
• Next to the Back button is the name of the current folder, such as OmniOutliner or Templates. Tap the down arrow to show options from the operating system.
• Opens the Toolbar OmniOutliner Menu.
• Automation Menu
• New Outline
• OmniPresence

Displayed buttons depend on which device you are using, the orientation of your device, and window size. The toolbar also contains buttons from the operating system.

File Details

Each file is represented by a thumbnail image. Once modified, OmniOutliner generates a preview based on the contents of the file; otherwise, the file is represented by a generic document icon.

Along with the thumbnail, each file displays its name, the date it was last opened, and its location on your device.

• Tap a document preview to open the associated file.

• To change the name of a file or folder, tap the name and then enter a new title.

Contextual Menu

Tap and hold a file’s thumbnail to open a contextual menu for the file, with the following commands:

• Copy — Copies the selected file and makes it available on the clipboard for pasting.
• Duplicate — Copies and instantly pastes a copy of the selected file at the current location.
• Move — Opens a hierarchical view of your locations where you can choose a new destination for the file.
• Delete — Deletes the selected file (it can still be recovered if necessary).
• Info — Presents a popup with detailed information on the file, including a larger document preview, metadata related to the file’s creation and modification, location on your device, and any tags you have assigned.
• Tags — Presents the list of available tags along with the option to create a new one. Tap a tag in the list to assign it to or remove it from the file.
• Rename — Opens the file rename dialog, just as if you had tapped its name in the document browser.
• Share — Opens the iOS share sheet, where you can choose from among the standard array of iOS share destinations as well as additional OmniOutliner-specific share options, as described below.
