Documents are the individual pieces of collateral that live inside a project folder e.g. brochures, web ads, signage, business cards, social media tiles etc. These documents can be edited based on the inputs available in that template. Documents may or may not require approval in order to be exported and downloaded, shared or printed.

Template Library: A central repository where all of your organisation's available templates are stored in the Outfit platform. This is where you will go to find and add a new template to your project.

Template Variation: A template variation is a separate version of a template which can be used as an alternative starting point for a document.
