Purpose of this building block
You can create new Google documents from your templates by merging the data from your variables into the new document. This is great if you want to have the ability to edit the resulting documents.
Possible use cases
- Create customer invoices based on a general template file
- Generate custom letters, birthday cards, labels, ... having variables automatically filled with individual information
Configuration
Click on the bold text in the title of the building block to open the configuration dialog.
Use the edit icon to edit the template in a new browser tab.
Click on the switch icon to pick another template and replace the currently selected template with the newly picked one.
Click on the reload icon to scan the template again to track down added or removed variables. If you have renamed your template on Google Drive clicking on this button will also update the document name in Ultradox.
Click on the preview icon to generate a PDF from your template and open the generated PDF in a new browser tab. Ultradox is now generating a new Google document for the preview as this would generate new files on your Google Drive for each generated preview. The generated PDF document will contain an Ultradox watermark and will not count against your license. The preview is perfectly suited for testing your template without wasting your license during development.
