Preparation of a print template for the transfer of attribute data via the WebOffice URL Call interface
In order to be able to display attribute data in the printout that is transferred via WebOffice URL Call interface, a corresponding template has to be created first.
At least one text field pair is required for the attribute data transfer. The fields must be named ct1 and cd1. Further text field pairs can be added with a higher digit, as also described for the URL parameters.
