There are several ways to create new documents in Landax.

Click the folder where you want to create a new document. Hover the mouse over Create new document and click an option in the drop-down list.

  • Upload a document
    If you want to upload a document located locally on your computer, you can click Upload a document to open your folders and upload the file.

  • Create from template
    To create a new document from a template, click Create from template. You will then see a list of documents that are marked as templates. Select the template document that you want the new document to be based on and click Create document based on selected template.
