About the Formal cover letter template
Formal runs your name across the full width, then splits the page: a narrow right-aligned column of sender details on the left, the letter itself on the right. It is the only uncoloured template with a genuine two-column body.
How it is built
- The sender column takes 25% of the width and right-aligns its contents against the letter body.
- The name spans the full page above the split at 2.4em, so the columns start beneath it.
- The recipient name is set in semibold, and no filled or tinted blocks appear anywhere.
