It is, however, possible to include or exclude sections when the output is generated, or to set
another section as the 'default', depending on a value in the data. A Control Script can do this;
see "Control Scripts" on page239.
See "Generating output" on page492 to learn how to generate Print documents or Email.
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
page494).
The Print context can also be added to Email output as a PDF attachment; see "Generating
Email output" on page508. 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 page52), or
when a Print context is added to an existing template (see "Adding a context" on page46) the
Print context folder is created along with other folders and files that are specific to a Print
context (see "Print context" on page56).
Only one Print section is created at the start, but you can add as many Print sections as you
need; see "Print sections" on page59.
Pages
Unlike emails, Print sections can contain multiple pages. Pages are naturally limited by their
size and margins. If the content of a section doesn't fit on one page, the overflow goes to the
next page. This happens automatically, based on the section's page size and margins; see
"Page settings: size, margins and bleed" on page67.
Although generally the same content elements can be used in all three contexts (see "Content
elements" on page101), the specific characteristics of pages make it possible to use special
elements, such as page numbers; see "Page numbers " on page69.
