elements, like a reseller address, voucher codes and so on, can be added in front of it (see
"Personalizing content" on page334 and "Variable Data" on page347).
By default, the PDF itself is added to the Image folder located in the Resources pane.
Uncheck the option Save with template if the PDF should not be imported in the template. If it
isn't saved with the template, the image remains external. Note that external images need to be
available when the template is merged with a record set to generate output, and that their
location should be accessible from the machine on which the template's output is produced.
External images are updated (retrieved) at the time the output is generated.
After clicking Next, you can change the settings for the page. The initial page size and bleed
area are taken from the selected PDF.
When you click Finish, the Wizard creates:
l A Print context with one section in it; see "Print context" on page128 and "Print sections"
on page133. The selected PDF is used as the background of the Print section; see
"Using a PDF file or other image as background" on page138. For each page in the PDF
one page is created in the Print section.
l One empty Master Page. Master Pages are used for headers, footers, images and other
elements that have to appear on more than one page, and for special elements like tear-
offs. See "Master Pages" on page152.
l One empty Media. Media, also called Virtual Stationery, can be applied to all pages in the
Print section. See "Media" on page155.
Word-based Print template
The Word-based Print template wizard creates a document from an existing Microsoft Word file:
a brochure, voucher, letter, mail merge document, etc. The images, lists, tables, and other
content within the document are imported into Designer and used for a new template.
After clicking Next, you can change the settings for the page. The initial page size, margins,
and orientation are taken from the original document settings, and you can adjust them on the
dialog. You can also select the number of sections and a minimum number of pages. After the
template is created, you can change the size of images and text boxes, and adjust the page
size and margins.
When you click Finish, the Wizard creates:
