Written Note
Use the Written Note Text Feature to format a letter, then configure your Style to choose from a selection of fonts.
Adding a Written Note
To add a Written Note to your book, select the paragraphs in the note and choose the Written Note item from the Text Feature menu.
✨ This feature was added in Vellum 3.4. Make sure you are up-to-date.
Configuring Content
Paragraphs in a Written Note can be formatted independently. Each paragraph will be Indented by default, but you can assign a different alignment or inset amount.
As shown above, you can Right align a letter’s date and Left align its salutation. And you can use the Deep Inset option for a letter’s closing.
You can make these assignments using the popup menu to the right of each Written Note paragraph in the Text Editor:
Styling
By default, when the note appears in your book, it will use a cursive, “handwritten” font
You can find more font options in the Written Note section of Styles:
Keep Lines on Same Page
It’s possible for a page break to occur within the middle of a Written Note. If you’d prefer this not happen, you can make use of Keep Lines on Same Page, accessible from the gear menu:
With Keep Lines on Same Page enabled, the entire letter will stay together on the same page of your book.
Note: Keep Lines on Same Page is not supported by Kobo or Google Play. Vellum’s Preview will reflect this.
