RTF and PDF Report Output Defaults

RTF is an output format that can be displayed and edited in most word processing programs. You can customize the RTF output for your reports by setting font type, font size, and macro options for the report title, header, and footer.

Note: RTF and PDF output utilize the same formatting options.

Note: Pagination is created by default, centered on a new line in the document footer. Pagination begins on the first page and continues consecutively through each section of the RTF or PDF document. The footer you define in the Properties dialog appears on a line above the default pagination. You can use the Header and Footer tool in your word processing program to edit or remove the default pagination.
