To add items and objects to a template:
In the Paper Layout view
of the Template Editor, click
in the toolbar to display the margin area.
Note: If you create a field object, the field is renamed when the template
is applied to a report. For example, if you create a field named F_1, the field
is renamed to F_1_SEC2 when the template is applied to a report. Thus, if you
reference F_1 in boilerplate (&F_1), these references will need to be updated.
