Creating the master document
Before you can use FreeForm, you must create a master document and a variable document.
This includes creating the layout for the combined document, as well as individual elements.
In a page layout or graphics application, arrange the master elements (text and graphics that
do not change) on one or more pages, leaving space for the variable elements.
After you finalize the design of the master document, print it to the Print Server and specify
that a FreeForm master be created from the job (see
page 18
).
