The 'Book' Object

In Address Book templates, a 'book' object is automatically created and can't be deleted nor duplicated. Its content can't be directly edited.

Double-click the 'book' object to show its options:

 

 

The 'Book' Object Options

 

Fields order: Choose in the pop-up menu the printing order of the Company, Firstname and Lastname fields.


This option only regards the printing order of the fields within a record, it doesn't affect the records sorting. Records are always printed in the order they appear in the list.


Print leading dots: This option prints dots between the name and the first number.

Print addresses: Uncheck this option to not print addresses.

Ignore returns within addresses: When this option is checked, returns within addresses are converted to spaces while printing. Thus, addresses are printed on a single line.

Print notes: Uncheck this option to not print notes.

Ignore returns within notes: When this option is checked, returns within notes are converted to spaces while printing. This makes the notes use a lot less lines on paper, but can also badly reduce their legibility.

Print categories: Uncheck this option to not print categories.

Print at most (n) lines per record: Enter here the maximum number of line to print per record. This allows to print only a small part of the notes to shrink a small pocket-sized address book. Enter 999 in the field to print the notes in entirety.


If you put a § character in the notes field, the text following it will not be printed. Using this feature, you can precisely control in each record what should be printed and what should not.
If you use this and also want to print categories, set the preferences to insert categories at the beginning of the notes (see Preferences).


Separate records, with a blank space, with a horizontal line: Select the separation mode. Separated records are easier to read, but use more paper.

New page when initial changes: When this option is checked, Carnet starts a new page when the current initial changes.

Beside the above options, the 'book' object is handled like a text object regarding to font, size, style, etc. You can move it and resize it freely.


This option dialog is also available from the Page Setup dialog, by clicking the Address Book Options... button.
