Note
An existing file template may be missing from the list if this is a custom template whose file name extension (template extension) does not match registered patterns of any of the recognized file types. In such a case, you may want to register the corresponding pattern for an existing recognized file type or add a new file type and register the corresponding pattern for this new type. For more information, see Creating and Registering File Types.

In the dialog that opens, type the name of the file in the corresponding field.
Note that you should not type the file name extension.
Specify other information as required. For example, you may be asked to define the values of custom variables if the corresponding file template contains such variables and their values are not currently set.
