XML, in a subfolder named Thumbnails.

PDF Options:
l
Standard: The standard PDF report contains a summary of the template with an
overview of all the settings and resources that are used in the template: media,
master pages, contexts, sections, images, scripts etc. The file properties are
included as well (see "File Properties dialog" below). The report has a standard
layout.
l
Custom: To create a custom PDF report, you need two files:
l
Template: A template design with the desired layout and variable data. This
.OL-TEMPLATE file has to be made in the Designer.
l
DataMapper: A data mapping configuration that provides the variable data.
This .OL-datamapper file has to be made in the DataMapper module, using
the standard XML template report as data sample.
Note
The DataMapper is included only in PlanetPress Connect and PReS
Connect.
File Properties dialog
The File Properties dialog shows the characteristics of the template, such as the file name,
author, creation date and keywords. It is also possible to add custom properties; customer
name, for example.
To open the File Properties dialog, select File > Properties.
When a template report is generated, the file properties are part of it (see "Exporting a template
report" on page113).
The properties are available in scripts via the template object; see the Script API: "template" on
page917.
