Tips & Tricks

Ways to insert text

You can add static text (that doesn't change) - like your standard payment terms and conditions - to your DOCX template.
The best way to do this is to add text to a table in the template. However, if you add text outside a table, you'll need to highlight your text > right-click > select Paragraph... > click Line and Page Breaks tab > check the box Keep lines together.
If you don't use either of these methods, your text may be hidden when you generate your sales invoice, credit note or statement.
You might find it easier viewing the tables in the template layout by enabling View Gridlines in Word. To do this in Word 2013 click inside a table TABLE TOOLS displays in menu, under it select LAYOUT tab and then View Gridlines.

Auto Size Table Cells

When formatting the Document Body where the Item Options are to show if the paragraph doesn't resize you need to go to the bottom border and double click this sets it to auto resize the same as in Excel. If you drag the border this will turn off the auto resize.
