Use a template

Templates holds 21 finished multi-page documents. Each shows a page count and a description of what its pages actually cover.

The templates tab

Template Pages Covers
Brand Guidelines 7 Identity cover, foundations, logo rules, colour, typography, voice
Business Proposal 6 Cover, opportunity framing, value case, roadmap, investment, close
Project Brief 4 Milestone cover, outcome and scope, delivery plan, risks, success evidence
Case Study 5 Before-and-after cover, challenge, approach, results, customer perspective
Meeting Notes 3 Agenda brief, attendee table, decisions, action register
Business Report 6 Data-led cover, executive metrics, detail

The rest cover marketing, presentation, print, and social-media work, filterable by those tags.

The descriptions say what each page does, which is the useful part. Two templates called proposal and brief differ mainly in whether they argue a case or record a plan, and the page list tells you which you are getting.

Templates are a starting point, not a constraint

Section titled “Templates are a starting point, not a constraint”

A template opens as an ordinary design. Pages can be removed, reordered, and rewritten, and every element is editable.

The usual mistake is keeping pages you have nothing to put on. A six-page proposal with two thin pages reads worse than a four-page one.

The Templates panel in the left rail offers the same set while you are working, so a template can be pulled into an existing design.

The Templates panel inside the editor

Create a design starts blank. Pages and resizing covers managing the pages a template gives you.
