used. The graphic can be above or below the line of text and aligned
as you specify.
Specifications for the header are completely independent from
specifications for the footer. See the online help topic “Format the
header or footer” for step-by-step instructions.
Page Setup
ID Works reports have page setup specifications, as many programs
that print to paper printers do. Using the Page Setup dialog box you
can specify the size of paper the report will be printed on, the source
of the paper, the orientation of the report (portrait or landscape), and
the margins on all four sides of the paper.
Your computer must be attached to a paper printer to change Page
Setup specifications.
Types of Report Fields
Report fields are the building blocks of report blocks. You must create
a report field for each item of information you want to print in the
report block. Each report field has a type that specifies the field’s
contents.
ID Works Standard and Enterprise Designer include eight types of
report fields: text, photo, date, signature, barcode, variable graphic,
static text, and static graphic.
