the text of a web page, letter or email. Scripts in PlanetPress Connect Designer are the basis of
Variable Data Printing.
The easiest, quickest and most direct way to add customer data to content is via drag and drop;
see "Variable Data" on page669.
The drag-and-drop method results in a Text Script. Another way to create a Text Script is to use
the Text Script Wizard. Often it is better to use the Text Script Wizard than the drag-and-drop
method.
The Text Script Wizard gives you more control over the way data is displayed. It can insert one
or more data fields, each with an optional prefix and suffix. For blocks of data, such as
addresses, the Text Script Wizard definitely is the better choice. See "Using the Text Script
Wizard" on page671.
Conditional content
In a template you may want to reveal content - text or images - to one group of recipients, but
hide it from others. You can use a Conditional Script Wizard to achieve this, if you have a data
field in your data on the basis of which a condition can be set. See "Showing content
conditionally" on page678.
Conditional Print sections
Entire Print sections can be included in or omitted from the output on the basis of one or more
values in variable data. See "Conditional Print sections" on page681.
Dynamic images
Dynamic Images are dynamic in the sense that they are replaced by another image when a
data field contains a certain value. Think of a signature image being swapped based on the
sender's name, for example. You can use the Dynamic Image Script Wizard to make this
happen; see "Dynamic Images" on page682.
Detail tables
A Detail Table is a table with a variable number of rows that can overflow on one or more
pages. It can also display subtotals on transport lines. In invoices, a Detail Table is an essential
element. Read "Detail Table" on page683 to learn how to insert a dynamic table.
