Reports, Printing and Exporting Lists to Word or Spreadsheets

 

 

In most cases your report will be displayed initially in a preview screen, like that shown above. To print it…

·        Use the “Percentage size” dropdown (illustrated above at 100%) to make the text appear bigger or smaller on the screen (n.b. but not the printed version).

·        Use the black “Arrow” icons to move to the first, last, next or previous pages.

·        Use the black “Binoculars” button to find any given piece of text, such as a client’s name (e.g. BLOGGS F, as illustrated below).
