You can add the following types of elements to your RTF layouts:
- Images, such as photos, logos and electronic signatures.
- Barcodes, including BPAY details and the Get Paid Faster QR code.
- Tables, including tables with sub tables, used for linked task items on your invoice, or through project progress claims.
Add an image
When adding image elements to a document template, the size of the image is based on the width and height settings in the element properties.
- Company logos use width and height from the element properties
- Signatures and images use width from the element properties - not height - to maintain aspect ratio.
Here are some examples of image types and settings you can manipulate when adding to your layout:
Logo size
Image size
Signature size
Logo, image and signature
Add images from Documents and Photos
Images that have been uploaded to Documents and Photos can also be added to Document Templates.
Images must be set with filter 'Show Client' or 'Show All' to appear on layouts. For more details, see Documents and Photos - Set document visibility.
