About the Simple cover letter template

Simple keeps the name close to body size and lets the letter start almost immediately. Use it when the writing should carry everything.

How it is built

  • The name is set at 1.5em semibold, the most restrained heading of any letter template here.
  • Contact details run inline directly beneath the name with no separator styling.
  • A full-width hairline closes the header, and nothing else is drawn on the page.

Other cover letter templates

Every letter template holds the same correspondence structure, so switching between them changes how the page looks and never what you have written.
