Should be easy. Separate EDD/template for each format. Import the template and
EDD and you see the new output.

But In all honesty I favour a simply formatted authors template for the
fragments. I also really prefer this approach for unstructured templates as well
if any of the production page layout or formatting quoibles can be eliminated at
the authoring stage.
