Data can be inserted in any locations: headers, tables, strings, etc. \\ ====$var_name$==== $var_name$ - variable in $$ that will be replaced with the formatted value. All $var_name$ with the same names will be replaced in all parts of the documents. Library uses current font settings of the $var_name$ during the filling. For example, if there are several variables with the same names but with different fonts, each variable uses its particular font settings. \\ ====$var_name%%m.%d.%y%$==== <nowiki> $var_name%%m.%d.%y%$ - variable with a formatting string. </nowiki>\\ There are some cases when users need to fill the current data in different parts of the report with different formats. For example: 01.01.20018 or 01/01/18. \\ ====Bookmarks==== <WRAP left round info 50%> Set the bookmark to be visible in the MS Word settings. </WRAP>\\ \\ \\ \\ Bookmarks have two styles: * Simple * Ranged – select range of the text A simple bookmark is filled by values beginning from the right.\\ A range bookmark is filled by values beginning from the right bracket. The text in the brackets will be deleted from the report if there is no import. It’s very useful when customers use big templates with a lot of fields and tables which can be deleted if not filled. \\ ====Description==== There are four options available for value placement: ^Name ^Description ^Example^ |variable |Text designation of the variable enclosed by %%'$'%%\\ \\ %%$var_name$%% - any phrases in %%$$%% will be replaced with string data or picture\pictures.
