Creating a Production Form from a
Card Design
If your ID Works project does not have a Production Form, you can
use Create Production Form from Card on the Designer Tools
menu to create a basic Production Form. See the online help topic
“Create a Production Form from a card design” for step-by-step
instructions. (If Create Production Form from Card is not available,
the Production Form already exists. Use the Add Fields to Production
Form command instead. See “Adding Fields to a Production Form
Created from a Card Design” on page 72.)
If your ID Works project has more than one card design, Create
Production Form from Card lets you select the card design to use
as the basis of the Production Form. You can change the Production
Form name. Create Production Form from Card presents a list of
card fields that can be placed on the Production Form. You select
which fields to add to the Production Form.
Smart card and magnetic stripe fields, as well as static text and static
graphic fields, are omitted from the list. (See “About the Created
Production Form” on page 72 for a list of card field types and the
Production Form field types created from them.)
When you have made selections in each field, the OK button
becomes available. When you click OK, Create Production Form
from Card creates a Production Form with the fields you selected. If
