Notes:
Use this dialog box to choose what to print:
- Document(s): - dropdown list that is used to select a
document type for printing
- Document tree
- Selected text
Note: The Selected text option is active when there
is a piece of selected text in comments.
Printing a document
Printing a document means printing a document of a certain
type: Notes.
For example, if you choose the Notes item, the following
control elements become available:
- Dropdown list that helps you choose what documents and records
to print:
- Current document,
- Current document and all child documents,
- Child documents of this type,
- All documents of this type,
- Current record.
- The Use background color option - a background color is
applied to each printed record.
- The Print note text option: if this option is selected,
each record is printed with its comments.
The Report file field indicates the name of the created
html file.
Note: An html file, ready to be posted in the
Internet, is created at printing.
Clicking the Ok button launches the process of printing a
report file (it is indicated in the Print progress bar).
If the Report options dialog box was called up by clicking
the Print... button, then the printing process will continue
on a printer when the value of the Print progress bar
reaches the maximum.
If the Report options dialog box was called up by clicking
the Print preview button, then, after the report file is
created, the Print Preview window
appears allowing you to start physical printing or call up the
Print Preview window of Internet Explorer.
The Cancel button cancels printing.
If, for some reasons, the report you get doesn't suit your
requirements, you can choose another report template.
Choosing a report template
The Report template dropdown list contains names of all
HTML-printing reports provided for
the selected document type.
Each template has a description displayed in the Report
description field.
For example, you can choose the Notes report template upon
printing Notes.
Example of the Print preview window at printing Notes
(template: Notes):
If you want to print a report of some other kind, you can choose
the Notes (Blue Header) template.

(template: Notes (Blue Header))
If you don't find a suitable template in the number of templates
supplied with the program, you can create your own report
templates. (See Example of
creating and using a template).
Printing the document tree
To print the document tree of the current gso file, select
the Document tree option.
Example of the Print preview window at printing Document
tree (template: Document tree)
Printing selected text
Sometimes you need to print not the entire document or record, but
a single part of record comments. To do this, prior to printing,
select a piece of text to print in the comments (in the main window
of the program).
At the same time, the Selected text option (set as default)
becomes available in the Report options dialog box.
Upon printing you get a report that looks like this:
