Financial Reporting preferences lets you specify how annotations should print. There are two main preference settings:
Details — When selected, a system-defined footnote is created. The Use Footnote Details area is enabled where print options such as the annotation elements to print and the number of annotation replies to print can be selected. Generic formatting is applied and system-defined size and fonts are used.
Text Object — When selected, the footnote function in the report's text object is used to print annotations. Footnote functions are created by the report designer. This option provides more flexibility in terms of formatting and printing of annotations. For example, the footnote function may specify to print only grid annotations with different size, font, and color to be applied to the heading and content.
To set annotation printing preferences:
Select File, then Preferences, and then Financial Reporting.
On the General tab, select Annotation Print Details to display the Annotation Printing Preferences dialog.
In the Annotation Printing Preferences drop-down, select one:
