User Preferences: Header/Footer tab

Use the Header/Footer tab to specify the header and footer layout for your PDF reports. The Header/Footer window is divided into two sections with input fields, along with several icons that help you specify your report layout.

How to Get There

Right-click the Consolidator and choose Preferences, then choose the Header/Footer tab.

 

Both the Header and Footer sections allow you to enter preferences for the Left, Center, and Right sections of your report. You can enter the report name and description, text, a page number, date and time, and graphics, such as a company logo, in each section.

The icons to the right of the input fields allow you to select standard information to include in each section.
