•As ePaper templates depend on the Layer data structure, you first need to set active a specific Layer for which you want to create a report for:
Set specific Layer as ‘active Layer’ in ArcMap Table of Content
Note: Selection symbology of the layer to generate a report from has to be the default setting of ArcMap. Otherwise there might be no selection on the ePaper.
Layer Selection Properties in ArcMap
•Use the Open Attribute Table context menu of the Layer for opening the attributes table of the Layer

•Now select some representative objects which you will use for generating reports just for test purposes (i.e. to see ‘what the user will get later’): Reports will always get generated for selected objects only
