Page layouts
Page layouts specify the overall configuration of a page. This configuration specifies the location and display properties of text, fields and graphics. For example, a page layout can include a customers name and address, account information, invoice number, company logo and payment information.
A page layout can contain multiple pages. If the document content spans more than the number of page layouts configured then Smile will use the last page layout specified for any additional pages. For example, an invoice may have a first page and a second page layout specified. If the content of the invoice is longer than two pages, then Smile will repeat the use of the second page layout until all content is displayed.
Page layout properties are configured in the following tabs:
- Fields—specifies the location, size and style of text, fields and graphics on the page.
- Background—specifies a background image and its location on the page.
- Global offsets—specifies offset measurements. Useful when printing on preprinted stationery.
- Postscript—specifies additional information added to the raw postscript of the page layout.
