Annotated SubID

Top  Previous  Next

When a flow with annotations or signature pad enabled is finished, part of the update process creates a PDF document with the annotated image.  When this PDF file is generated, it includes footnotes identifying the annotation marks on the image, and a PDF popup with footnote definitions.  This document is generated by a standard rule set "annotate" in the df/docflow.rul rule file.

 

However, if a different format for this document is required, it is possible to generate it using a custom rule set named [annotate-flowid] in a custom rule file called docflow.custom.rul.  You can copy the default rule set to benefit from the standard functionality, but add your own, such as color coded marks, or legends in a blank region of the page, or even adding a cover page with such information.

 

If the signature pad option is enabled, the signature image is placed on the document using the position and size specified in the flow's signature pad Position entry.  This entry is the left, top, width, height, and page values specified as a comma-separated list with each value interpreted as inches.  The page number can be set artificially high to place the signature on the last page.  The image will be one of the uploaded attachments whose title value is "df-signature.jpg".
