 Pro tip: Importing Styles from the Word Document will create styles in Legito that can be edited in your Settings and will be used when exporting the Legito document.
 Pro tip: If you open the Sample Loan Agreement document, you will note that there is markup to help create specific elements in your Legito template. Using this markup can give you a great head start in your template creation. Find out more about marking up your document before creating a template here.
