The advantage of this is that the form isn't visible/printable, and yet it won't be deleted.// If using the Professional version, put your serial key below.ĬomponentInfo.SetLicense('FREE-LIMITED-KEY') Then you close it, and it populates the document in the fields. Basically you create a pop-up form that comes up when you first open a template, where you fill in the pertinent information. I've also tried this method I found on YouTube. Otherwise, they tend to backspace-delete the brackets and not understand why they broke it. The only slightly tricky part for me about this is that if I'm working with documents and coworkers are going to be in there too, they should have 'show bookmarks' checked in their Advanced Settings, so that they see the brackets surrounding the original bookmarked text. Where you want them to reappear, use Insert Cross Reference, and choose the bookmarks you want.

This setup for the surname Plain Text Content Control is exactly the same, except for the tag name and style name, which is ‘surname’. This style has not been edited anyway and only the styles name has been changed. I have created a new style with the same name as the Plain Text Content Control tag called ‘forename’. I do not want the box to be able to be deleted, although this document will NOT be restricted. The first Plain Text Content Control has the following properties: I have uploaded a document which explains with pictures what am I am doing, however I will paste the text in this message just in case anyone does not feel comfortable downloading and opening a random word file from the internet.Īs you can see above, this is a simple table and in the second column are two Plain Text Content Controls.
