SmartForms - draw line in template

Former Member

Hi!

I am new to SF, so have a question on drawing line in a template. I use template as the data is only printed out once and is static. I have many columns in my template and I would like to draw lines on the columns so that it is tidy & looks nicer.

I double click the template & in the "output options" tab, I checked the check box "line with..", but error prompt out to stop me, saying "Boxes/Shadings are not allowed within a table".

Does anyone know how can I draw lines in a template?

Kindly advise.

best regards,

Ginnie

Hi,

In the Template tab, Press the draw lines and columns button and select the cells in the template whichever you want to be enclosed in lines.

Now select any of the the Pattern buttons to draw lines (inner frame outer frame etc)

Hi,

Click on the template under the template tab, and then click on the select pattern just under the template heading , there you use lines.
