Editable letter from Santa: type it, then print
Type your letter in the box and it appears on Santa’s stationery as you write, with his handwritten signature and wax seal. Pick one of five designs, then print it or save it as a PDF on US Letter or A4. It’s free, nothing to download, no Word needed, and your text stays in your browser.
How to fill in the editable Santa letter
- Replace the parts in [brackets]. The starter letter follows the order that works best: hello from the North Pole, specific good deeds, someone they love, the wish without a promise, and a P.S.
- Be specific. “You learned to ride your bike without training wheels” beats “you were good”. Two or three real details are enough.
- Keep “Santa Claus” on its own line. That line turns into Santa’s handwritten signature. Start the last line with “P.S.” and it is set in italics.
- Pick the paper and print. Choose a design and Letter or A4, then print, or pick “Save as PDF” as the printer to keep it.
Your draft is saved in this browser, so you can come back to it later on the same device. It is never sent to us.
Prefer Word or Google Docs?
You don’t need them, but you can still use your own document: print our blank Santa letterhead first, then print your typed text onto the same sheet (the letterhead page lists the margins to use).

Printing tips
- In the print dialog, set margins to “None” and turn on “Background graphics” if the paper colors don’t show.
- Thicker paper (24–32 lb / 90–120 gsm) or cream cardstock feels like real North Pole mail.
- Very long letters shrink to fit one page. If the text gets small, cut a sentence or two.
