Printing

In NewViews, printing can be divided into two main categories:

  1. Reports / Tables - Any window in NewViews that has rows and columns, such as reports, employee lists, journals, ledgers, etc.
  2. Documents, such as checks, invoices, purchase orders, statements, etc.

Test Page templates are available to check the printing of your documents. Each document test template contains all the fields "cell names" for a specific type of document. The test templates are grouped by document type as well as one template for all common fields.

All printing is performed using Microsoft Excel ©, which makes all of Excel's extensive formatting options available to NewViews printing. When printing documents in NewViews, it does not matter if Microsoft Excel is open or closed. That is to say, if Excel is open beforehand, it will still be open afterwards and if Excel was not open beforehand, it will not be open when NewViews finishes printing.

This is not entirely yet true between NewViews Mail Merge and Microsoft Word. If Microsoft Word is closed when you start a NewViews Mail Merge, it will still be closed once the Mail Merge has completed. If on the other hand, Word is open before you run Mail Merge, an error will occur because NewViews cannot take control of Word in this situation. A future version may address this issue.
