Which format should I download?
All 22 templates are in Microsoft Word format, making them the best choice if you need to repeatedly edit details like deposit amounts, payment terms, or client information. Since they’re non-fillable forms, they’re ideal for users who want full control over wording and formatting—such as adding a company logo or adjusting line items—before sending to clients.
