Banner
Banners use a graphic image imported into Photometric Toolbox for use when printing output from the reporting tools. The image
may be created in any graphics program that can save content in BMP, JPEG (JPG)
or Windows™ Metafile (WMF) formats. The image will always maintain its
original aspect ratio (the ratio of width to height) and will be scaled
accordingly to fit within the confines of the banner size.
Banners have a maximum size of 1.25 x 6 (31.75mm x 165.1mm) and are
always placed at the very beginning (top) of the first page of the printed
output.
- Import the banner in one of two ways:
- To
import a saved graphics file, click on the Import button. You will be
presented with the 'Select Image File' dialog in order to browse for the
graphics file. Select the file and click Ok to bring it into the Banner
dialog.
- You
may paste a bitmap image directly into the Banner dialog from the Windows™
clipboard. First, left click in the banner section where an existing image
is located (or in the blank space if empty). Then, right click to display
the pop up menu and select Paste. Alternately, instead of selecting Paste
from the pop up menu, you may press the CTRL+V keys (at the same time)
on your keyboard to paste the image in.
- You may preview the printed banner exactly as
it will appear by clicking on the Print button. The banner will be sent
automatically to your default Windows system printer.
- Click Ok to save the current image as your Banner
image.
