hi feel a bit daft asking this but how do i print a letter off from the templates got a new printer today have tryed but it printed everything on the page sorry about this but have been at it for a few hours now and have no one to ask ie all my kids have left home lol
The best way to do this is to copy the letter you want to a 'Word doc.'
Edit it, i.e. put your name, bank detetails in and take any stuff you don't want out. Then you can print the letter off and save the letter in case you need it later. It's always best to print off 4/5 copys anyway.
Hope this helps, come back and shout , if it dosn't

Put your cursor at the top of the text you want to copy, keep your finger on left click, the text will go dark, drag the cursor down and everything that goes dark you will copy. Release your finger when the text you want is dark, then, right click on the dark text and click 'copy'.
Open 'word', on the blank page wherever you put your cursor, right click then click 'paste' and Bingo, your cooking with Gas
Try it on this page.

1. First of all, open up Microsoft Word and right click on the top left icon, a white rectangle. This will open a new page on which you will copy the letter. Minimise this blank page by pressing the - sign at the top right.
2. Now find the letter you want to copy off CAG. Carefully position the cursor on the first word you want to copy and hold down a left click of your mouse. Scroll down using your mouse and the letter should start to turn blue / black. When you have highlighted all the bits you want, stop holding down the left click of the mouse, position the cursor over the highlighted words and right click the mouse.
3. Left click on 'copy.'
4. Now maximise your blank page, position the cursor anywhere and right click the mouse. You will see the option 'paste'. Left click on this. Your letter should now be copied onto Word, where you can save, change and print it!!!
