Carbonless Printing

Carbonless Printing - This is a fantastic feature we've added to ClickBook. Now you can print carbonless forms with any number of copies per form. ClickBook also handles the sub numbering on the form and can print the numbers as a header or footer.

To activate Carbonless Printing follow these instructions.

1. Print a file to ClickBook, and the ClickBook dialog appears.
2. On the menu bar select Layouts, and go to Modify Layout. The Modfiy Layout dialog appears.
3. Click on the Carbon # box in the right hand corner of the screen to setup printing options.
4. Choose the number of Carbonless Copies you would like to print for each form.

Note: To set specific rules for Carbonless printing click on the Carbon # box.
