    • Right-click an existing letter and select Edit Letter Template from the menu.
      • If you edit one of the pre-defined standard letters, you must click Save As to save the letter with a new name.  You cannot save changes to the standard letters.
  6. Edit the letter as needed.
  7. When you complete the content, do one of the following to save the custom letter template:

      3. Click Save. The custom letter template displays in the Letter Template Library under the selected letter type.
    • Click Save As if you edited an existing standard letter.
  8. If you want to set the template to generate or render in tax returns for selected return configuration sets, do the following:
    • Right-click your new custom letter template in the library and select Enable Letter Template from the menu.
    • Select return configuration sets for the letter template.
