Formatting

Why is formatting important?

Formatting a document properly can make all the difference to how your words are perceived by the reader.

It can take your work from a final draft to a polished and professional looking piece of content.

Formatting can also create consistency and cohesiveness, throughout a single document and across different documents, which can help to make your brand – whether corporate or personal – stand out from the crowd.
