Create a Professional Letterhead Online in Minutes

A letterhead is the heading at the top of a paper letter or stationery. It often includes information about a company or an individual, such as their name, logo, address, contact information, and in some cases a background pattern.

Letterheads are used by companies, organizations, and individuals across every industry. Here are some situations where you’d use a letterhead:

• Official papers and documents to be published
• Letters and notices
• Purchase orders and invoices
• Memo pads and note pads

Although letterheads vary in format and style, two common components that should be included are:

1. Company identity elements: name, logo, slogan, or tagline
2. Company contact information like an address, phone number, fax number, website, email, etc.

Remember, don’t overdo it with your letterhead. Keeping it functional is important, but too much information will distract the recipient’s attention from the document itself.

In North America, the most common paper with a letterhead is 8.5 x 11 inches (215 x 280 mm), and in most countries outside this region, letterheads are often printed on an A4 size of 8.27 x 11.69 inches (210mm x 297mm).

The default letterhead size on Fotor is 8.5 x 11 inches, but you can always choose to adjust the dimensions or make a custom size if you need to.
