Note
When you send a test email, the Email To Script will not be used; instead, the email
will be sent to the address that you specify in the Send Test Email dialog.
l The sender(s), recipient(s) and the subject can be set using Script Wizards; see "Email
header settings" on page343.
l Default SMTP settings can be set in the preferences; see "Email header settings" on
page343.
l If there are multiple Email sections, only one of them can be merged with each record.
Make sure that the correct section has been set as the default; see "Setting a default
Email template for output" on page343.
To dynamically select a section for output, use a Control Script; see "Control Scripts" on
page570.
l PDF attachments can be compressed to make the files smaller; see "Compressing PDF
attachments" on page340.
Generating Email output from Connect Designer
To generate Email output from the Designer:
1. Open a template with an Email context.
2. Load a data file or database compatible with this template, or open a Data Mapping
Configuration. See "Loading data" on page524.
If you have an open Data Mapping Configuration and open another data file, the current
Data Mapping Configuration will try to retrieve data from the file or database using its own
Data Model and extraction logic.
Note
When generating output with just an open Data Mapping Configuration, the
template is merged with the complete sample data file that is part of the Data
Mapping Configuration. The output is not limited to the number of records shown in
the Data Model pane (which is one of the settings in the DataMapper).
