Printouts can include custom text at the top of each page.

The following header options are available:

Custom text is printed at the top of each printed page. For example, your own copyright for the documents that are being viewed or some other informational text is printed.
formatted text
Text can include limited formatted elements as follows.

$of Prints the word "of" in the appropriate translation.
$pages Prints the word "pages" in the appropriate translation.

Print headers that are greater than 100 characters are truncated and not auto-wrapped to additional lines. The exact number of characters differ based on the font, and the combination of characters and digits that you use.

Default setting: ($page # $of ##)
