Document Customization

Customizing your document paragraph by paragraph is laborious. That's why, we have a number of themes to choose from. To unify your document as a whole, all you have to do is to select the theme and apply it to the text. You can also create a theme of your own by personlizing heading styles and adding fonts from the font library.

How do I customize themes?

    icon in the top-left corner of the screen.
