Frequently asked questions

How do I make a letterhead in LaTeX?

Use a letterhead template: it sets up your name/logo, address and contact footer once, and you type the letter body below. Open one on LetX and compile it in your browser — no install.

What's the best LaTeX cover letter template?

If you use the Awesome-CV resume, use its matching cover letter for a consistent look. Otherwise the general Cover Letter template pairs with any resume.

Can I add my logo to the letterhead?

Yes — upload your logo image into the project and the template places it in the header area; you can resize or reposition it in the source.

Do these work for formal business letters?

Yes — the Formal Business Letter and KOMA-Script letter templates follow standard block layouts with proper date, address, salutation and signature blocks.

How do I edit a LaTeX letter without installing LaTeX?

Open any letter template on LetX, click "Open as Template", edit in the browser, and download the PDF — it compiles in about a second.
