Hi Avaduds,

What you want is to add a column to the template.

Just click on the "Right column" button as shown below:

You can try like this...

Under the template double click on the column text editor

in the output options tab output structure is there and it consists Line and column fields..

fill in it like this

Line             1

Column         1

Line             1

Column         2

Line             1

Hi Avaduds,

Once the template is created, in the 'details' section rows are defined:

Here: ROW1 will have 3 columns of width 5CM, 3.5CM and 3.5CM,

           ROW2 will have 3 columns of width 4CM, 4CM and 4CM,

Therefore this template can hold 3*2=6 text elements.

When TEXT is created, in “Output Options” tab, under “Output structure”, position of the text is defined:

Below text is for 1^st row, 1^st column.:

‘From’ and ‘To’ columns refer to the number of rows for which a given row definition is applicable.

Regards,

Deepika
