Templates
The Templates page lets you control exactly how your invoices and quotes look when delivered as PDFs. Choose a layout style, set brand colors, add a logo, write your footer and payment terms — all with a live preview that updates in real time as you make changes.
Key Features
- Two document types: Separate settings for Invoices and Quotes, each with its own tab — changes to one don't affect the other
- Layout presets: Choose between Classic (clean, professional, colored header) or Minimal (grayscale, no colored header)
- Brand colors: Primary and secondary color pickers — ACME Creative Agency's existing brand colors are pre-filled automatically as a starting point
- Logo override: Optionally supply a different logo for PDFs instead of your default company logo
- Footer text: Add a short message or legal line that appears at the bottom of every document
- Payment terms: Your standard terms (e.g. "50% deposit required to hold your date") printed on every PDF
- Show Tax ID: Toggle whether your Tax ID appears on documents
- Signature block: For quotes only — adds a signature line for client acceptance at the bottom of the PDF
- Live preview: The preview panel on the right updates instantly as you adjust any setting, using sample line items so you can see exactly what clients will receive
How to Use
- Open Templates from the settings menu
- Click the Invoice or Quote tab depending on which document you want to update
- Select a Template layout from the dropdown — Classic or Minimal
- Use the color pickers to set your Primary and Secondary colors
- Optionally enter a logo URL in Logo Override to use a PDF-specific image
- Fill in Footer Text and Payment Terms as needed
- Toggle Show Tax ID and, for quotes, the Signature block checkbox
- Watch the live preview on the right update with each change
- Click Save Changes to apply your settings to all future PDFs
Tips
- Invoice and Quote templates are saved independently — you can use Classic for invoices and Minimal for quotes if you prefer
- Leaving Logo Override blank means your company's default logo is used automatically
- The preview uses sample data (a fictional "Jane Sample" invoice); real PDFs will show your actual client and billing details
- The Save Changes button stays grayed out until you make an edit — it activates as soon as something changes
