Document Tab - Word Report Templates

The following commands are available in the Document tab of the Word report template’s Ribbon.

Template

• Open Template opens a saved Word report template (*.rtt) file.

• Save Template opens the Save As window where you can save the current Word report template as a *.rtt file. (See Saved Workbook/Report Templates.)

Note that each template works only in the application that was used to create it.

Print

Note that these print commands apply to the template only. To print the report, you first create the report (Home > Report > Create Report) then print it from Microsoft Word.

• Print sends the current template containing the function and plot placeholders to the printer.

• Print Preview opens the Print Preview window, which allows you to view how the current template will appear on the printed page.

• Quick Print prints the page.

Page Setup

• Margins displays a submenu where you can select the page margins either for the entire document or just the current selection.

• Orientations allows you to switch the report pages between landscape and portrait mode.

• Size allows you to select the paper size for the current selection.

• Columns allows you to split the text into two or more columns.

• Breaks

• • Page adds a page break.

  • Column adds a column break.

  • Section (Next Page) inserts a section break and forces the next section to start at the top of the next page.

  • Section (Even Page) inserts a section break and starts the next section on the next even-numbered page.

  • Section (Odd Page) inserts a section break and starts the next section on the next odd-numbered page.

• Line Numbers

Add line number to entire page:

1. • To number consecutively throughout the document, click Continuous.

   • To start with number 1 on each page, click Restart Each Page.

   • To start with number 1 after each section break, click Restart Each Section.

Remove line numbers:

1. • To remove line numbers from the entire document, click None.

   • To remove line numbers from selected text, click Suppress for Current Paragraph.

Customize starting and increment numbers, and position of line numbers:

The following options can be used alone or in combination.

1. • To change the starting line number (e.g., from 1 to 10 or 100), enter the new value in the Start at field.

   • To change the incremental line number (e.g. from 1, 2, 3 to 10, 20, 30 or 50, 100, 150), enter a new value in the Count by field.

   • To change the position of the numbers in the left margin, enter a new value (in inches) in the From text field. A positive value will move the numbers further to the left. A value of zero will return the numbers to the default location.

Tip: The same Line Numbers options are available on the Page Layout tab in Microsoft Word. You have the option to change or remove the line number settings after the report has been generated.

Protect

• Protect Document opens a window that allows you to prevent the Word report template from being modified. You have the option to enter a password, if desired.

• Range Editing Permissions opens a window that allows you to specify which users and/or groups can make changes to a template. This option is not available when the document is protected.

• Unprotect Document opens a window to enter your password to remove the protection from a protected document and allows changes to be made to that document. This window will not display if the document was protected without a password.
