Reformatting a document from legal size to letter size would require someone to access a word processing program and take the time to make the necessary formatting changes. Then the reformatted document would have to be re-uploaded into the database, platform, or software program, or whatever it is that users access when they include that document in a loan package. Who knows what other considerations may need to be addressed.
If you consider all possible legal size documents produced for all types of loans, it wouldn't surprise me if worrying about changing the format to letter size is not even on the priority list for many companies, let alone close to the top of it... I'm also fairly confident that our costs and challenges with acquiring legal size paper aren't a concern of loan companies and document services. (You'd think they'd care about it for themselves, though... Same for big title and settlement co's.) |
