In the test spool entry you will discover that the two letters for Florence Flowers are numbered in succession. The above definition will therefore see it to that no level break occur between these two letters which means they will be inserted into the same envelope, or stapled together.

Go to section Using the Finishing Definition with Auto Forms Control in order to test the definition.

Find Recipient ID in the Following Positions

This feature will make a level break on recipient variations found in the spool entry.

These fields can be combined with the Page Selection Criteria but they are more likely to be used alone. If Page Selection Criteria is used, then one of the three criteria lines must be true in order for the recipient ID fields to be checked.

The level break is made when one or more characters changes within one of the defined line and column intervals.

Print Line: The print line in the spool entry to monitor.

Position: The column interval to monitor

Example 2, Level Break on Change in Customer Info:

The most commonly used method will be to monitor a Customer ID in a certain position. A customer ID will most likely be printed on all pages for one recipient.

The following example monitors the customer ID in our test spool entry. That means if the Customer ID between two successive pages in the spool entry does not change these two pages will be inserted in the same envelope, or stapled together. The Customer ID is found in line 13 column 57 to 60.
