Describes the usage of this form.
Forms are grouped in sets. Each Check Factory company is assigned a set of forms.
For example:
Company A has the following forms:
_Blank, Invoice, AP Check, PR Check
Company B has the following forms:
_Blank, Invoice, AP Check, PR Check
and so on...
Each set of forms for a company has its own user definable properties.
A Check Factory form is built from several items. They are: Parts, Overlay, and User Parts. Check Factory can define and print part information on both sides of the paper if you have a duplexing type of printer. This section pertains to the front side of the paper.
Parts
Like a pre printed form, a Check Factory form can have multiple parts. Each part can be designed with independent graphics and wording on it. For instance you can design a three part form with different words at the bottom of each part. An example would be Customer Copy, Sales Copy, File Copy.
Parts are defined independently of the form overlay so there is never a danger of modifying or corrupting the overlay by mistake. The Check Factory visual designers allow you to put text and graphics on any part.

Defaults
The Defaults button removes any changes you have made via Customize and reverts the the Front Side Parts properties as defined in Form Control Master for this Form ID.
Enable Front Form Overlay
Un checking this box will disable printing of the front side form overlay if there is one defined in Form Control Master for this Form ID.
User Parts Document - Front
You can create a PDF document in the Check Factory Forms designer or another program and specify it here. Each page of the PDF will be used as a part overlay. If you print more parts than the number of pages in the PDF document, it will use the last page of the document for the remainder of the parts.
We recommend that you save your PDF documents to the User Documents or Custom folder in the main Check Factory folder so you don't misplace them.
Click on the
open folder button and navigate to your PDF file.
The properties are exactly the same as the Front Side Properties except they apply to the back side of the paper if your printer allows duplexing.
Print Menu
The print menu allows you to print samples of your changes as if you were printing a form at print time. You can print just the front side or the back side, or both sides if you have a duplexing printer.
The Add Record and Delete Record buttons are not available in Form Control. Form Control records are linked to the Form Control Master file. Adding or deleting a Form Control master record will add or delete form control record for every company installed.
