Format: Template Dialog Box: Font Tab

If you arrived here from Workstation, see the Workstation Document Authoring Help.

You can change the formatting of text on the report, such as metric values, using the Font tab of the Format: Template dialog box. (If DHTML is disabled, you use the Format panel.)

From the first drop-down list, select the area of the report to format, such as All Grid Cells, Grid Borders, or a specific attribute or metric. From the second drop-down list, select the type of text to format, such as Header or Subtotal Values. Format the selected text using the following options:

  • Font: Select any font that is installed and available on your machine. When you select a font name from the list, the font is applied to the selected text.
  • Style: Applies italic or bold effects to the text.
  • Size: Select any font size that is installed and available on your machine. Options in this list depend on the font type you choose. When you select a font size, it is applied to the selected text.
  • Effects: Applies underline or a strikeout to the text
  • Color: Specify a color in which to fill the report component by clicking the arrow on the color menu. You can apply a color gradient, which is a shading between two colors, by selecting Gradients. In the Gradients dialog box, select the two colors to use for the gradient. Then select a shading style to determine the direction in which the two colors are blended.
  • Sample: Shows a sample of how the text looks when various options are selected.
