Content from file

The content from file field is used to insert content from an external document, by specifying a location for the required document. This is useful (for example) if you need to use content that is constantly being updated; rather than adding text directly into the template editor each time there is a change, simply specify a location to the original file and the latest content will always be included. The file location specified must be accessible to the user NETWORK SERVICE.

To use content from an existing file in a template, follow the steps below:

  1. Use the fields panel to insert a content from file field and open the file location window:

    File location
  2. Click the browse button to display the open window and navigate drives and folders to select the required file. Alternatively, use the insert button to select an Active Directory field to insert as the file source:

    AD fields

 

Remember that you can switch to preview mode (from the template editor toolbar) to see the effect of any dynamic fields you have inserted.
