Wrapping Text

This object is used to add wrapping text to appear on every page of output. You can substitute up to 9 parameters (marked with %1 to %9 as in DOS batch files), or the date and time of printing into the text, which will then re-wrap into the rectangle defined in the Designer.

Properties

Colour ... (from leaf.‘colours)
Font ... (from the current font list)
Size ... font size in points
Pitch ... vertical spacing in points

For more details on the properties and parameter substitution, see Fixed Text.

Note that the text will wrap when entered as the object’s caption in the Designer, but due to the inaccuracy of Windows’ font scaling, the wrap points might not reflect the true line-break positions when you print the document. Use the Preview tool in the Designer for a final check.
