You can change the style and alignment of labels for PDF form elements.

If the Element Label Style or Element Data Style fields are not available, they are not applicable to the field selected.

Note:

In transaction form PDF layouts, you cannot change the line spacing, nor can you change the space between label text and data text. For information about using advanced templates to change the spacing between label text and data text, see Advanced PDF/HTML Templates.

  1. Go to Customization > Forms > Transaction Form PDF Layouts.

  2. Click Customize or Edit next to the form you want to change.

  3. In the Form Editor, click the element with the label you want to change.

  4. Under the Element Label Style heading to the right of the preview, set the font style and alignment options for this label.

  5. Check the Use Label Coloring box if you want the color set in the Label Text Color field to be used for the label of a form section.

  6. Check the Split Horizontally box if you want the text beside the label. Clear the box if you want the text beneath the label.

  7. To see how this PDF layout will look when printed, click Preview.

  8. Click Save.
