[Tex/LaTex] Import a template from a zip file

importtemplates

I am trying to use the AIAA template in Texstudio, however I do not know how. I have been using ShareLatex for the past year now and would like to start using Texstudio. So how do I take the downloaded zip folder and use the template? Each time I open the femplate file to the editor, it will not compile and I have no idea why.

The problem is that while Texstudio can load files from a zip, it can't write to it. Therefore it cannot create the files it needs to compile your document, and has nowhere to put its output.

As Andrew's comment suggests, you need to unpack the files from the zip folder to a regular folder in which you want to create your document. Then from there, open the .tex in Texstudio and start working.

I changed the errors to a minimally working example...

\documentclass[]{letter}


\begin{document}
% If you want headings on subsequent pages,
% remove the ``%'' on the next line:
\pagestyle{headings}

\begin{letter}{William Shakespeare}  % Since good old William's 450th birthday in a few days ;-)
\address{London}

\opening{Dear William}

\signature{Ben Jonson}

\closing{Well roared, lion}\relax

%enclosure listing
%\encl{}

\end{letter}
\end{document}

[Tex/LaTex] How to add templates to TeXmaker

If you extract the zip file to a folder then open the main.tex or whatever the main file is in TeXmaker it should automatically open the 'template' i.e. the structure will all be there.

Is this what you meant or did you mean to get TeXmaker to recognise it as a template in the Wizard menu (which is beyond me I'm afraid)?
