Document Templates
Document templates are used as conversion instructions, to render XML, HTML, CSV or any open format from a document or a list of documents, using specific rendering operations. You can use document templates to:
- handle business data on content types and generate a nicer presentation for publishing, export, etc.
- create a file from document properties and create file on demand.

Mail Templates
A mail template defines the content of an email sent to users under predefined circumstances. A mail template is usually composed of text and variables. Typically, they are used to define the content of email alerts in the Nuxeo Platform.
It can be used in the "Notification > Send Email" operation, or when notification emails are sent during a workflow. It can also be used for any event occuring in the platform.
Mail templates can use properties from the Document object or the Workflow task properties.
When downloading the Nuxeo Platform, users will access some default mail templates. However, they can also create them manually.
