CONTENTS

Printing

You can print Netvisor reports and other pages by selecting the desired report or page and using the print icon displayed below the Netvisor menu.

Proceed as follows:

  1. Open the report or other page you want to print.
  2. Select the print icon below the Netvisor menu.
  3. Choose whether you want to:
    • open the report in a browser-viewable HTML format, or
    • create a PDF file of the report.
  4. To read the PDF document, make sure you have Acrobat Reader or another PDF viewer installed.

PDF file

When creating a PDF file, you can customize the appearance of the report with the following settings:

Paper size

  • Select the orientation and size of the PDF file to be created.
  • Increase the paper size if you want wide reports to fit into the PDF file without having to edit the font size.

Font size

  • Change the font size as desired between 6–22.

Do not show background colors

  • Keep this option enabled by default if you want the reports to be printed on a white background.
  • Clear the checkbox if you want the gray row highlights visible in the interface to appear on the report.

Fit to page size

  • Select this if you want the content to be fitted to the page size selected above.

Preserve page formatting

  • Select this if you want to print the page with the same formatting as in the interface.

Show header

  • Keep this setting enabled (default) if you want to print the company name and the time of printing in the top right corner of the page as a header.

By editing the printing settings, most reports can be neatly printed into a PDF file.

Browser-viewable format

  • Select HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) as the report printing format if you want to use your Internet browser’s own print editing functions to edit the report.
  • Save the browser-viewable report in PDF format by installing a virtual printer that creates PDF documents (e.g. CutePDF or PDFCreator) on your computer and printing the page with it instead of a paper printer.
