What is the easiest way to create a single new punch key?

• A. Edit an existing punch key
• B. Create a new key from scratch
• C. Copy a punch key from another project
• D. Use a Punch Key Wizard

Answer: (A)

Punch keys are templates that bundle the name, description, color, icon, and the punch geometry you drop on PDFs. The easiest way to create a single new punch key is to start with an existing punch key and edit it. You already have a complete template in place, so you only tweak the parts that differ—like the label, notes, color, and icon—rather than building everything from scratch. This saves time and reduces the chance of missing fields because the underlying structure is already set up. Starting from scratch would require defining every attribute and the punch geometry again, which takes more steps. Copying from another project can be faster if you find a near match, but you still need to locate it, import it, and adjust it to your current project. The Punch Key Wizard can help guide you through creation, but for a single new key, editing an existing one remains the quickest path.
