Printing variable data documents with FreeForm
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 the
elements themselves. In a page layout or graphics program, you arrange the master
elements (text and graphics that do not change) on one or more pages, leaving space
for the variable elements.
When you have finalized the design of the master document, print it to the EB-105EX
and specify that a FreeForm master be created from the job (see
page 5-8
).
