Document Designer

In AIM, documents are templates from which real world correspondence such as memos, quotes, binders, faxes, declaration pages, etc. are created. A template has data fields within it that can be used to populate the document with data from the submission or record with which you are working.

Documents are divided into three sections:

  1. A template or form that contains text and data fields.
  2. The underlying detail/data used to cause AIM to use the document in specialized ways such as identifying a document as available for use as an attachment.
  3. Section templates that can be inserted into multiple templates to assist with the maintenance of multiple documents.

When we discuss designing a template, we are referring to designing the form mentioned in item 1 above. When we discuss editing a template, we are referring to editing the underlying detail for that document mentioned above in item 2.

In the topics below, we show you how to create and design PDF templates for Document Designer.
