mammadalius

I want to print my document on a PrePrinted Paper which has some blank space
to Fill.(Like a Form)
How could I have the form itself on the screen and fill the Blank Spaces and
in the time of Printing, just desired parts, Print on the paper?

Hi mammadalius,

You can put the form's image into a field in the document header, coded as:
{IF{PRINTDATE \@ yyyyMMddHHmm}= {DATE \@ yyyyMMddHHmm} "" "Your image goes here."}

After printing, a print preview restores the image display. However, since the PRINTDATE field doesn't support seconds, you might
have to wait up to a minute before you can do this The average delay would only be 30 seconds.

Note: The field brace pairs (ie '{ }') for the above example are created via Ctrl-F9 - you can't simply type them or copy & paste
them from this message.

I'm intrigued by this, Paul. What makes it work?

Never mind; I think I have figured it out.
