The following zip file contains both the template and data mapping configuration that are used
to generate the standard template report: http://help.objectiflune.com/en/archive/report-
template.zip.
Generating output from the Designer
Output can be generated directly from the Designer; see "Generating Print output" on page535,
"Generating Email output" on page549 and Generating Web output.
To test a template first, select Context > Preflight. Preflights executes the template without
actually producing output and it displays any issues once it's done (see also: "Testing scripts"
on page248).
Package files
The Package file dialog saves templates and print presets as a package file. Print presets
make it possible to do such things as filtering and sorting records, grouping documents and
splitting the print jobs into smaller print jobs, as well as the more standard selection of printing
options, such as binding, OMR markings and the like. See "Job Creation Presets" on page435
and "Output Creation Settings" on page444 for more details.
To save a template to a package file:
1.
Select File > Package files.
2. Select the template to send. By default the currently active template is listed. Click
Browse to select another template. You may select more than one template in the
Browse dialog, and each of them is added to a package file. A template file has the
extension .OL-template.
3.
Use the drop-down to select a Job Creation Preset to send. Click Browse to select a
preset that is not in the default location for presets. A Job Creation Preset file has the
extension .OL-jobpreset.
4.
Use the drop-down to select an Output Creation Preset. Click Browse to select a preset
that is not in the default location for presets. An Output Creation Preset file has the
extension .OL-outputpreset.
5.
Click OK to save the package file.
