Header and Footer Settings dialog box |
![]() ![]() ![]() |
Use this dialog box to specify header and footer text that appears in Predictive Systems Lab's printed documents.
Specifies formatting text and position. This grid box contains two tabs, the Header and Footer tabs, with three columns and ten rows each, for typing the header and footer information.
On these tabs, the column headers A, B, and C correspond to text that will appear left-, center-, and right-aligned, respectively, on the printed document (see figure above).
Information typed in any of the cells of the grid is reproduced to the printed document. In addition to this, the Header and Footer box accepts the indication of predefined text-holders:
Token | Text |
$A | Predictive Systems Lab. |
$D | The current date and time. |
$F | The document file name. |
$N | The total number of pages. |
$P | The current page number. |
$R | The currently active document worksheet name. |
Displays the Choose Font dialog box to specify the font for selected text you have typed in the Header and Footer grid box.
Allows you to specify the vertical space between the header text and the top margin (Header box), or between the footer text and the bottom margin (Footer box). The value you type in these boxes can be interpreted to represent inches or centimeters, depending on whether one of the unit tokens, in or cm, is specified immediately after the value. If the unit token is omitted, or if the token is spelled other than described, the value of the distance is interpreted as inches.
Page Numbering
Specifies the first page number for printing documents. Subsequent pages are numbered after this value.
