Converting RGB black to CMYK black
In Print output, black is by default output as a CMYK color. RGB black is converted into CMYK
black.
If that is not desirable for any reason, it is possible to prevent it:
1.
Right-click the Print context in the Resources pane and select Color Output.
2.
Enable the Keep RGB black in output option.
In Connect versions prior to 2018.2, RGB black was not automatically converted to CMYK
black. Therefore, this option is by default enabled in templates made with an earlier version.
In new templates, this option is disabled by default.
Print sections
Print templates (also called Print sections), are part of the Print context. They are meant to be
printed directly to a printer or a printer stream/spool file, or to a PDF file (see "Generating Print
output" on page857).
The Print context can also be added to Email output as a PDF attachment; see "Generating
Email output" on page873.
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.
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 page138.
The minimum number of pages can be set via the Print section properties; see "Print section
properties" on page481.
Although generally the same content elements can be used in all three contexts (see "Content
elements" on page179), the specific characteristics of pages make it possible to use special
elements, such as page numbers; see "Page numbers " on page139.
See "Pages" on page137 for an overview of settings and elements that are specific for pages.
