Default Letter Signatures - 04-03-2007 , 10:30 AM






Does anyone know of a way to have a container field containing a signature
so it will appear below the body of a one page letter of varying length?
Sometimes the body of the letter is short, other times it fills 80% of the
page... and I cannot figure out how to dynamically place the signature field
so it appears a couple of lines below the body of the letter.

Thanks for any help in advance.

Using Sliding.

You make the letter field (or text block if using Merge fields) as long
as the maximum size it will ever need to be. You then put the Container
field underneath that, and then set BOTH field / objects (plus any
other objects) to Slide Up and shrink the size of the enclosing Part.
