Adding Content Elements

There are two types of text content:

• Static text (1): contains no data binding and stays consistent in every generated document. The text can be entered freely to the document editor. Each line of text is a paragraph.

• Dynamic text (2): where the content is mapped with data and the content may vary in each generated document. Usually, it is wrapped in a <span> element which gets highlighted when hovering over it and has square brackets [] outside the text (placeholder). The dynamic content can be mapped from the Data Source tab.

Image placeholders are added with the image icon on the editing toolbar.

After clicking on the image icon, a placeholder will be added to where the cursor is. A new element <image> is created with special attributes like Source and Width to customize the image. Images under 20KB can also be uploaded from the Upload Image button.

Depending on where the image is stored, either in Salesforce or on another publicly accessible hosting site, there are different ways to map the image.

The table element <table> contains the table header <th>, table body <tb>, row <tr>, column <col> and cell <td> elements. Both dynamic or static text content can be added in cells.
