Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between DIN 5008 Form A and Form B?
In Form A the address field sits higher (27 mm from the top edge of the page), in Form B lower (45 mm). Form B leaves more room for a letterhead or logo, Form A more room for the text. Both fit a window envelope. Letter Manager supports both; you set the form once.
Does the letter fit a window envelope?
Yes. Address field and fold marks follow DIN 5008, so after folding the address sits in the window of a DL envelope. Print at actual size (100%), not “fit to page”.
What does the free version do, and what does the full version add?
You can write, export as PDF, print, share, organize and search letters without buying anything. Signature, logo, letterhead, fonts, text formatting, attachments and scanning with text recognition are part of the full version.
Can my family use the full version too?
Yes, the full version can be shared through Apple Family Sharing.
