"PDF Printing an boxes

[Richard Kreiss]

I you haven't "played" with PDF print with boxes, at present you can't use filePro's line drawing to create the boxes.  It doesn't create the lines one expects.

Tx="Text to go inside of the box"

To draw a box one uses <rect height="20" Width="525" stroke="1.0"> *tx

The above will draw a box 2 line high with a fairly thin line.  The text is located just above the bottom line of the box.

I have used embedded  code to draw the box.  However, one can put this into a printer table also.

I am considering placing the code into the processing table to create the boxes necessary for the form I am creating.  I will create this form and then make it fillable as information will need to be added or updated by the recipient.

I already produced this form in Word and made it fillable.  It will be easier to produce 283 forms and email them out using filePro to create the forms with data already on hand.

Yes, I know I could use PrintWizard to do this in one step but for now I wil work within filePro.
