A template's function is mostly to separate the form from the content.
A template may mean a predefined layout to give you an idea what to write where with boxes and lines; a single-page newsletter template (for instance), might have a few columns, space for a picture and gaps for the headline and name of the newsletter.
Templates can be used by humans or by automated systems; many web-based software packages now use a templating system to seperate the logic of the program from the displayed formatting. Typically, these templates will include variables (often denoted {VARIABLE}), and possibly a few logical operators to allow better adaptability of the template.
