Book Preview Toolbar

The Book preview toolbar allows you to interact and navigate in the book being previewed.

  1. Page Navigation:This displays what page is currently being previewed in the report book. To navigate to a specific page, enter the page number and press Enter.

  2. First/Last: Use these buttons to navigate to the first or last page of the report book.

  3. Previous/Next: Use these buttons to navigate forward or backward one page.

  4. Combine All Items: This combines the report book’s pages and treats them as one content item.  Use this feature in conjunction with saving or printing an entire report book.  If selected, you can save the entire report book as one PDF file, print the entire book, and navigate page by page using the blue navigation arrows.  If this box is cleared, only the current page will save or print, and black navigation icons will be enabled.

  5. Download Combined PDF File: This combines the entire report book into a PDF file using the standard Adobe rendering process and uses less memory when attempting to display large combined PDF files.  This does not require enabling Combine All Items.  This is the suggested method when downloading any report book to PDF.

  6. Refresh: Use this button to refresh the report book and select new Parameter values.

  8. File name: Shows the name of the file currently being previewed.
