 +===== How it works ===== 
 +FormFiller creates PDF documents containing member profile data, as well as any text or images. Members can be selected by name or from a predefined "Custom List". FormFiller distinguishes between form printing (fixed XY coordinates) and label printing (relative XY coordinates). 
 + 
 +=== Definition of the term "form printing" === 
 + 
 +Form printing in the sense of FormFiller means that a PDF form is filled using absolute XY coordinates. The X and Y values define the horizontal and vertical position in millimeters relative to the top left corner of the PDF form.
  
-Form pressure within the meaning of Form Filler means that the filling in a PDF form is performed using fixed XY coordinate. The details for X and Y define here the horizontal and vertical position in millimeters relative to the upper left corner of the PDF form. 
 Example:\\ Example:\\
 {{:de:plugins:formfiller:beispiel-xy-position.png?400}} {{:de:plugins:formfiller:beispiel-xy-position.png?400}}
  
-In the above example, the first name of the member is 60 millimeters and 80 millimeters to the right down, counted from the upper left corner of the form is written. The last name is 100 millimeters to the right and 80 mm downwards, also counted from the upper left corner of the form is written.+In the example above, the member's first name is written 60 millimeters to the right and 80 millimeters downwards, measured from the top left corner of the form. The last name is written 100 millimeters to the right and 80 millimeters downwards, also measured from the top left corner of the form.
  
-⇒ Surname and first name are in the same row (80 mm)\\   +-> Last name and first name are on the same line (80 mm)\\ 
-⇒ First name (at 60mm) stands in front of Surname (bei 100mm)+-> First name (at 60mm) comes before last name (at 100mm)
  
-Further information on this topic can be found in "Configurations" section in this document.+Further information on this topic can be found in the "Configurations" section of this documentation.
  
-=== Definition "label printing" ===+=== Definition of the term "label printing" ===
  
-Label printing within the meaning of Form Filler means the smallest X coordinate of a line defines the start of printing. All other X-coordinate of a line used exclusively for sorting.+Label printing using FormFiller means that the smallest X-coordinate of a line determines the start of the print. All other X-coordinates of a line are used solely for sorting.
  
 Example:\\ Example:\\
 {{:de:plugins:formfiller:beispiel-umschlag-dl.png?400}} {{:de:plugins:formfiller:beispiel-umschlag-dl.png?400}}
  
-With form printing, the printed image would appear as follows: (always relative to the upper left corner of the form) +Using form printing, the printed image would look like this: (always referring to the top left corner of the form) 
-  * Gender (Informal) to position 20,30 (20 millimeters to the right and 30 mm downwards)  +  * Gender (title) at position 20, 30 (20 millimeters to the right and 30 millimeters down) 
-  * First name at item 25,30 (25 millimeters to the right and 30 mm downwards) +  * First name at position 25, 30 (25 millimeters to the right and 30 millimeters down) 
-  * Surname at position 26,30 (26 millimeters to the right and 30 mm downwards)+  * Last name at position 26.30 (26 millimeters to the right and 30 millimeters down)
  
-⇒ The last name here would begin a millimeter to the right of first name and this would almost completely overwrite it.+-> The surname would begin one millimeter to the right of the first name and almost completely overwrite it.
  
-However, if label printing is set, the printed image is as follows: +However, if label printing is enabled, the printed image will look like this: 
-  * Gender first name last name // (each separated by a space)//+  * Gender First Name Last Name //(each separated by a space)//
  
-⇒ Smallest X coordinate in the example is 20, that is, gender (= Heading) determines the start of printing at position 20,30 (20 millimeters to the right and 30 mm downward, relative to the upper left corner of the form). First name and surname are, separately, added by a space.+-> The smallest X-coordinate in the example is 20, meaning the gender (= salutation) determines the start of the print at position 20,30 (20 millimeters to the right and 30 millimeters down, relative to the top left corner of the form). First name and last name are appended, each separated by a space.

-=== Menu settings ===+=== The Main Menu ===
  
-The menu **settings** is selected via the Settings link, top right of the default view. It is divided into four menu items.+To populate a PDF document, a data source and a form configuration must be selected in the main menu. Specifying a PDF file is optional.

 + 
 +The form configuration defines the various parameters for printing, including the XY coordinates of the profile fields to be printed, font size, font color, relationships, and the distinction between form and label printing. 
 + 
 +If no PDF file has been defined in a form configuration, a PDF document to be filled in can be selected via “PDF file (optional)”.

 + 
 +Important note: PDF forms must not exceed PDF version 1.4. If an error message appears... 
 +//"This document (....pdf) probably uses a compression technique which is not supported by the free parser shipped with FPDI."//, then the PDF form was created in a higher version and with specific techniques that FormFiller cannot process.

-To enable Form Filler can access PDF forms, they must be uploaded beforehand in the Downloads section Admidio //(Hinweis: Die Auswahl für eine PDF-Datei wird erst am Bildschirm angezeigt, wenn mindestens eine Datei in den Downloads-Bereich hochgeladen wurde)//. Wird für eine Konfiguration kein PDF-Formular ausgewählt, so erzeugt FormFiller selbständig ein leeres Dokument im Format A4, hoch und der Einheit Millimeter.+In order for FormFiller to access PDF forms, these must first be uploaded to the Admidio download area. (Note: The selection for a PDF file will only be displayed on the screen once at least one file has been uploaded to the download area.) If no PDF form is selected for a configuration, FormFiller automatically creates a blank document based on the specified PDF form orientation, size, and unit (the default is portrait, A4, and millimeters).
  
 == Labels == == Labels ==
-To print labels the following information in the labels box are required: the number of columns, column spacing, number of lines, line spacing.+To print labels, the following information is required in the Labels field: number of columns, column spacing, number of rows, row spacing.
  
 Example:\\ Example:\\
 {{:de:plugins:formfiller:etikettendaten.png?500}}\\ {{:de:plugins:formfiller:etikettendaten.png?500}}\\
-Here the label printing would look like this: +The label printing would look like this: 
-  * 3 Labels across (3 colums), at a distance of 70 mm (column spacing) +  * 3 labels side by side (3 columns), spaced 70 mm apart (column spacing) 
-  * 7 Labels across (7 lines), at a distance of 25 mm (line spacing)+  * 7 labels one below the other (7 lines), spaced 25 mm apart (line spacing)
  
-If the labels field is filled, the XY position information of formfiller will be interpreted in another way: First formfiller sorts all profile fields using the position data after line (Y-coordinate) and column (X-coordinate). Then the smallest X coordinate of a line is determined. This smallest X coordinate defines the start of printing. All other X-coordinate on the same line used exclusively for sorting.+If the Labels field is populated, FormFiller interprets the XY position data as follows: First, FormFiller sorts all profile fields according to the position data by row (Y-coordinate) and column (X-coordinate). Then, the smallest X-coordinate in a row is determined. This smallest X-coordinate defines the start of the print run. All other X-coordinates in the same row are used solely for sorting purposes.
