OFFICE: Proposal Templates - Full & Page

What is a Proposal Template?

A Proposal Template is a "base" that already has details in place for use when creating a Proposal. You can input basic information with a predefined page layout and style so that you can tweak it depending on your needs instead of starting from scratch each time. This includes the color, font, logo, and pages.

You can create Full Templates which include the content, page margins for pdf's, color, font, logo, and pages.

Or you can create Page Templates that are just individual pre-made Pages. They do not affect any customization in place.
