stationery template in the mail app on iPad Pro

Hi, everyone. In the mail app on a MacBook Air there are variety of choices for stationery, sentiments, birthday greetings, etc. One can easily use the template and just put in one's own message.


Is this possible to do on an iPad Pro? I can't seem to find a way to do it. Perhaps there is none within the mail app itself on the iPad Pro? Please enlighten me. Thanks.

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7.3)

Thanks, but I would totally need specifics. I am aware that other apps exist to create stationery and I’ve read the steps for some of them and they are so complex. I will use the stationery available on my Mac Book Air. I had hoped to eventually migrate fully to use of iPad Pro and eventually ditch the laptop; not sure if that is possible given some of the options a laptop and desktop computer have over the portable devices. For now, what I have works. If you know of a simple app to create stationery in iOS or a simple process, let me know. Otherwise I consider it as “no such thing possible in iOS” as the answer at this time.

Some notes apps already contain pre-made stationery and offer other pre-made stationery as an in-app purchase.

You create the note or message you want in the app on the pre-designed stationery you choose, then take a screenshot of the completed message.

In the Photos app, crop out any app interface areas, then use the Share feature in Photos app to add the “image” of your custom stationery style note into the iOS Mail app.

Another way to introduce a letter with a custom layout/template/stationery is to create the letter using the iOS version of Apple’s own Pages app.

Once you have created the letter in an appropriate template if you want it to appear in the body of your email instead of an attachment, take a screenshot of the finished letter, go to the Photos app, open the Image of your letter edit/crop out any parts of the Pages Interface and save the edit. Then exit edit mode and go back to the camera mode, use the Share icon/feature, the Share window appears.

Pick iOS Mail app to share the image of your letter, and the Image of your custom templated/stationery letter will appear in the body of your email.


This is the method I always use to create a custom email/letter and have it actually show in the body of an email instead of always having to be an attachment.
