Scripting a Custom Printing Solution

If you use the List/Record field type, Advanced PDF/HTML Templates is available in the list. The Advanced PDF/HTML Templates option provides users with a list of all available advanced templates. You can incorporate the option in a scripted custom printing solution that lets users select the form to be used for printing.

Note:

The Advanced PDF/HTML Templates option lists all available templates and is not filtered for users. Use the Advanced PDF/HTML Templates option only with a scripted custom printing solution that specifies what action to perform when the user selects a form from the list.

Viewing Custom Images and Custom Image Files

After you add a custom image to a form using a custom image field, the image is shown on the form when you view it. You can interact with the image in two ways:

• When you click the image thumbnail, you are directed to its file in the File Cabinet.

• When you hover over the image, the Open button appears. When you click the Open button, a pop-up window shows a full-size preview of the image.
