Reuse shared custom templates with brand controls

Last updated on Apr 16, 2026

Reuse and customize shared templates within a guided, brand-controlled editing experience.

When a template creator shares a reusable template, collaborators receive both an in-app notification and an email with access details. The custom templates shared with you are accessible in Your stuff > Files and can be filtered using Shared with you. This feature is available on Adobe Express for Teams and Enterprise plans.

Select the number of pages you want to start with.
