The following attributes allow you to override the standard appearance for that data item. These attributes are accessible from the dropdown menu on the PTR Editor tab on the far right of the screen.
- Underline - You can set the Underline attribute that will apply for this data item in the PTR editor tab; this overrides the default for the selected stylesheet. The following are standards for when a field should not get an underline even when the default for the stylesheet is to underline fields:
- Alignment – Setting the alignment for a data item overrides the standard alignment applied by the stylesheet. (Percents are right aligned, Dollar amounts are left aligned, etc.) Typically this is used when there is a column of dollar amounts that are being added to show a total and we want all of the dollar amounts to be right aligned instead of left.
- Prefix and Suffix – Adding a value for the Prefix or Suffix attributes inserts that entry immediately before or after the data item in the document output. This is used when a calculation is being done on the data items and we add a +, -, or = as the Prefix value.
Custom Fonts
You can override the default font for
para and
dta elements. This is done by double-clicking the desired element and then right-clicking to display the context menu containing the custom fonts options.

Note: Custom fonts must be registered within the Font.XML file. For more information, refer to
Managing Fonts.
