Print
With the Designer you can create one or more Print templates and merge the template with a
data set to generate personal letters, invoices, policies etc.
The Print context is the folder in the Designer that can contain one or more Print sections.
Print templates, also called Print sections, are part of the Print context. They are meant to be
printed to a printer or printer stream, or to a PDF file (see "Generating Print output" on
page801).
The Print context can also be added to Email output as a PDF attachment; see "Generating
Email output" on page815. When generating output from the Print context, each of the Print
sections is added to the output document, one after the other in sequence, for each record.
When a Print template is created (see "Creating a Print template with a Wizard" on page277),
or when a Print context is added to an existing template (see "Adding a context" on page270)
the Print context folder is created along with other folders and files that are specific to a Print
context (see "Print context" on page281).
