Templates
save valuable time by ensuring that documents come back formatted the same every time.
With SpeakWrite's Template feature, users can save valuable time and money.
Using a template is a great way to easily customize your document with elements such as spacing, preferred indentation styles, margins or fonts. Your template can include letterheads, headers, footers, page numbers and other elements to personalize your documents exactly to your liking.
For example, a letterhead template could contain your standard letterhead, layout and signature block so you can just compose the body of the email rather than having to set up the entire letter each time. Or, if you have standard contract language that is commonly used, you may create a template that includes that language and then you can customize based on the specifics of that deal.
What are Templates?
Templates are files that serve as a starting place for a document, so that you don’t have to start from scratch each time.
Templates can contain formatting so that your documents come back looking polished and consistent each time. Or, they can contain text that is commonly used so you don’t have to re-create it each time.
