With the PDF Layout Designer filter, you can print several documents from ONE shipment on one A4 page, for example.
Example:
If you receive, for example, shipping and returns labels for each of your consignments and want to print these together on one A4 page, you configure two print areas under Parts and assign the corresponding document type from the list to the respective print area.
This is advantageous if, for example, you are already using A4 labels.
NOTE:
The filter only works with documents from ONE shipment. Shipping labels from different consignments can NOT be printed with this filter.
