Microsoft Word does not support form fields in the header and footer. As a result, you need to populate the headers and footers with text or images from Unifier. Refer to the BI Publisher Report Designer’s Guide for more details.
To populate the headers and footers with text or images from Unifier, follow these steps:
- At the top of our RTF template (in the body, not the header), place the following tags:
<?template:header?><?end header?> - These tags form the start and end of our header. In between them, place the text and images want to include in the report header. Use a 3-column table in the header and footer of your template to allow for a uniform adjustment.
- Double-click into the header of the document. Ensure that none of the BI Publisher fields are highlighted.
- Add the text: <? call@:header?> to place everything in the tags added above into the header at report runtime.
