Note
  • If creating one salary notice, <<[/#list]>> can be at the bottom of the document as the last field.
  • If creating multiple salary notices at once and the generated notices are not advancing to the next page properly, ensure <<[/#list]>> is at the very top of the next page.
  • To insert a logo (Imageimage), go to Insert>pictures.  Make sure the image Ensure the logo is inserted after the first field of the form, «[#list modelObjects! as row]», and is positioned as ‘in line with text’ so Word recognizes it as part of the document.
