Creating a letterhead template

Android · iPhone · quillo.trUpdated:

Where: Letterhead & signature › My letterheads › New letterhead; Tools › My signatures and stamps › My letterheads; Settings › Letterhead.
  1. 1Give the template a name (e.g. "ABC Ltd.", "XYZ Construction", "Personal"). You can keep a separate letterhead for each company and make one the default with the star; you pick it by name when applying a letterhead and writing a petition.
  2. 2Logo: "Choose from gallery" or "Scan with camera" (photograph the logo on paper; the scanner finds the edges and straightens it).
  3. 3Header lines: the first line is the company or your name (written large), then address, phone · email. Footer: tax number, website, registration number.
  4. 4Layout: Modern or Classic; choose an Accent colour. The preview updates instantly with a sample letter.

Letterhead type: with the "Letterhead type" choice at the top of the template you pick one of three ways.

  1. 1Logo and text: draws the letterhead from the logo, header lines and footer as above.
  2. 2Ready-made header and footer: add the header and footer designs you already have as images or PDF pages with "Add header" and "Add footer". Each is placed across the page width, and the text goes between them.
  3. 3Blank letterhead paper: upload your blank letterhead paper as an image or PDF with "Add blank letterhead", then adjust the "Text area".

Text area: the letter text and page content are written only inside this dashed frame; outside the frame is darkened, it stays as your letterhead image and no text goes over it. The label at the top left of the frame shows its size on A4 (e.g. "Text area · 176 × 208 mm"), and the grey lines inside show how the text will be laid out.

  1. 1Moving: drag the four-arrow handle in the middle (or the inside of the frame).
  2. 2Resizing: drag one of the arrow handles at the four corners.
  3. 3Two fingers: on a phone, pinch the frame with two fingers to resize it from the centre.
  4. 4"Centre" makes the left and right margins equal; "Reset" goes back to the default area.

With the camera: the header, footer and blank letterhead rows also have "Scan with camera". Photograph the printed letterhead paper you have; 's document scanner finds the edges, corrects perspective and shadow and whitens the background. Adjust the corners and tap "OK" and the image goes straight into the template; you don't need to turn it into a file separately. For a header or footer, bring the corners around just that strip.

Tip: If you choose a PDF, its first page is used. Templates go to Drive; a letterhead you design on the phone can be used on quillo.tr right away.
Web (quillo.tr): On quillo.tr the text area settings are right above the preview; arrow keys move it (faster with Shift), + and − resize it. Outside the frame the page can be scrolled.
iPhone: The text area is the same editor: the middle handle moves it, the corners enlarge or shrink it, and pinching with two fingers resizes it; "Centre" and "Reset" are next to the title. Dragging outside the frame scrolls the form.
