Adding and Formatting Text in Advanced Templates

The New Element toolbar of the template editor includes a button that you can click to insert text on advanced PDF/HTML templates. To add text, first place the cursor in the location on the template where the text should be added, and then click the Text button.

If the Styles toolbar does not appear, select the text that you want to format, and then click Styles. The Styles toolbar of the template editor includes rich text editing buttons that you can use for the following text formatting functions:

• Formatting Styles

• Paragraph Formats

• Font Name

• Font Size

• Text Color

• Background Color

The editor also includes buttons for font styles and effects. You can point to each button on the Styles toolbar to display a tooltip.

The template editor includes text editing buttons that you can use for the following text alignment functions on advanced templates:

• Decrease Indent

• Increase Indent

• Align Left

• Center

• Align Right

• Justify

Note:

Custom column fields of type free-form text or text area are always left-aligned, no matter what alignment setting you specify here. To change the alignment of a text or text area column field, add td p { align:left; } to the template stylesheet.
