Hidden text
You might use hidden text for words or short phrases that describe
features of Great Product Pro that are not found in the Lite version.
You can reuse the same field in several places in your document—for
example, by copying and pasting it.
To create a hidden text field:
1) Choose Insert > Fields > Other and select the Functions page.
2) Select Hidden text in the Type list, as shown in Figure 390.
3) Type ProLite EQ "Lite" in the Condition box and type the
required text in the Hidden text box. Remember, this is the text
that is hidden if the condition is true.
4) Click Insert to create and insert the field.
