To define a header, use the Layout-Editor. For more details on the Layout-Editor, see the Layout section in this document.

The Layout-Editor, with which the header can be created, is similar to the Layout-Editor for the Java Swing Renderer. However the following restrictions have been identified:

Restriction

Details

Formula restriction

No Drag&Drop of elements from the XML schema navigation tree (left), references to field values can be made by means of formula

Classic separator only

No support for the heading separator modern (only classic)

No button definitions

Buttons cannot be defined.

Simple layout only

Only simple layouts may be defined, as the following dependencies exist on the PDF Renderer:

  • Column sizes are effective in percentages only
  • Row heights are effective in pixels only (otherwise Preferred-Size)
  • Alignment „fill" is not supported. Instead, the component is centered (center)
  • Pictures are not scaled, but displayed in their original size
    The WYSIWYG conformance is not always achieved.

A header in a resulting PDF document may look like this:
