At the end of the last year we have completely overhauled the Documents and Templates unit to provide for the long sought features: ability to include images, tables, links, etc. The new unit is very versatile and flexible. It caters for both intermediate and advanced users and provides a simple interface that enables creation of complex document layouts, while at the same time allowing high level of customisation for users familiar with HTML formatting and styling.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
You can now create great looking documents and emails with just a few clicks.<\/div>\n

Document Tables<\/strong>
\nThe table creation interface is similar to the one of the MS Word. You can also format the whole Table, individual Cells, Table Rows or Table Columns. By default the width of the table is set to the page width with 1pt thick cell frame.<\/p>\n

You can type in text or place images in the Table Cells. The Column width is calculated automatically, but can be set manually, too.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
You can control the Table from the Menu or the Toolbar.<\/div>\n

Improved Macros<\/strong>
\nThe new Documents and Template units now has improved Macros (data placeholders) that are more visual and versatile. The macros allow you to create data driven templates where the actual information is automatically inserted from the database on creating of a document or on emailing.<\/p>\n

Image Placement
\n<\/strong>You can now add images to Templates and Documents. You can use \u201cInsert File\u201d icon in the Toolbar or \u201cInsert Image\u201d. The preview lists the thumbnails of all the Patient Images (saved both in Images and Communication units) as well as the Images common for the whole Practice (like signatures, logos, etc.). Images have resize handles for scaling. Practice common images can be added at Management->Practice Details->Practice Images. Upload a single of multiple files.<\/p>\n

Practice Headers<\/strong><\/p>\n

Users can add your Practice Headers or logos with a single click in the Toolbar. The full details selection inserts a header with all the relevant practice information: name, address, ABN, contact numbers, etc., while the Logo Only selection inserts the Practice Logo without any text. The headers are editable after the inserting: text can be edited or formatted, images resized, removed or aligned.<\/div>\n

Printing Documents
\n<\/strong>Please use the Print Button in the Documents Toolbar to print. It is also very important to properly set up the printing page, because the default printing settings of every browser may give you undesired results.<\/p>\n

1. In the Page Settings un-tick \u201cscale to fit\u201d that forces the pages to fit into a single page by changing their size<\/em><\/div>\n
2. In the Page settings set all the footers and headers to \u201cnone\u201d or \u201cempty”  otherwise it will print the URL link, the header info, etc.<\/em><\/div>\n
