What is a template?

A template is a pre-designed layout used to create documents. Instead of recreating a document over and over again, a template allows you to keep your page formatting and "fill in the blanks" that need changing. Templates can be used to create calendars, newsletters, memos, Excel spreadsheets, Word documents, PowerPoint presentations, HTML emails, and more in a matter of minutes.

How Templates Work:

Each template contains document settings such as fonts, page layout, special formatting, and styles. Think of a template as a blank employment application and you get to fill in all the boxes. It has orders, boxes, lines, and instructions to tell you where you may (or must) enter important texts. The employment application is the structure and what you write in the spaces is the content. A template gives you the structure for your documents and you get to fill them in as you like. With the Profiles feature (in both High Impact eMail and OfficeReady), your templates can be easily customized with your company logo and information.
