The right sidebar in the editor has two tabs: Templates and Color & Fonts. All changes apply instantly and auto-save.
Templates
Four templates are available, each with a distinct visual style:
| Template | Style | Best For |
|---|
| Minimalist | Clean layout with subtle color accents | Conservative industries — finance, consulting, legal |
| Bold | Strong header with prominent styling | Creative or leadership roles where presence matters |
| Modern | Contemporary design with balanced spacing | Technology, product, and startup roles |
| Classic | Traditional format with formal structure | Executive positions and established companies |
Click any template thumbnail to switch. A “Selected” badge appears on the active template. All templates support the same header fields and body content — switching templates changes only the visual layout, not your content.
Color & Fonts
Colors
14 color swatches are available. Click any swatch to apply it — a checkmark indicates the active color. The color affects headings, accents, and structural elements depending on the template.
Font Family
Eight font options:
| Font | Character |
|---|
| Inter | Clean and neutral — the default |
| Raleway | Elegant with distinctive weight variations |
| Poppins | Geometric and modern |
| Roboto | Versatile and widely used |
| Open Sans | Friendly and highly readable |
| Lato | Professional with subtle warmth |
| Montserrat | Bold and contemporary |
| Rubik | Rounded and approachable |
Font Size
A three-level slider that adjusts the base font size across the entire cover letter. Move it left for smaller text (fits more content) or right for larger text (more emphasis).
Line Height
Three levels: 120%, 135%, and 150%. Higher values add more vertical space between lines, improving readability at the cost of page length.
Word Spacing
A three-level slider that adjusts the space between words. Wider spacing improves readability; tighter spacing fits more content.
Start with the Minimalist template and the default color for most applications. If you are targeting a creative or design-focused role, experiment with Bold or Modern. The Classic template works well when applying to traditional organizations that value formal presentation.
