HOW TO USE STEP BY STEP
Londonhouse Report Feature Sheet Creator is a memory-intensive web application
that uses new and advanced HTML functionality. Not all browsers are made equal -
Internet Explorer is not supported, but Firefox, Chrome, Safari generally work
well. On older computers, depending on size of the Londonhouse Report and if
local hi-res files are loaded, some browsers may have issues displaying these
hi-res images. The most compatible browser for older computers is Firefox. If
creating PDF takes too long, please try: a) restart browser; b) quit all other
apps to free memory; c) restart computer.
STEP 1:- LOAD THE Londonhouse Report
Unless the Londonhouse Report is already loaded and you see gallery images to the
left from this text, enter an Londonhouse Report address in the Londonhouse
Report URL field and press Load.
STEP 2: SELECT FEATURE SHEET LAYOUT, FONT AND COLOUR
Select feature sheet layout between 2-page and 4-page, select font type, and
select background color for agent banner and property description text at the
top left corner of the page.
STEP 3: CHOOSE PAGE DESIGN SAMPLES
Inspect available page design samples displayed as thumbnail images with a page
design number shown in red. Note designs you would like to use for STEP 5.
STEP 4: CHOOSE PAGE DESIGNS AND SELECT IMAGES
For each page of a feature sheet, choose a desired page design from the drop-down
list. Select an image from loaded Londonhouse Report gallery by clicking on it
and then place that image on a feature sheet page by clicking on a grey box
where you want the image to go. Click and Click is faster than Drag and Drop!
The 4-page design has page ordering defined by print layout, so it is out of
sequence.
STEP 5: ADDING YOUR OWN ADDITIONAL IMAGES (OPTIONAL)
You can load local image files from your disk, such as high resolution images
from Hi-Res HDR package using the Add Files button. To load multiple images,
hold down Shift or Ctrl key while selecting individual images. Using hi-res
images is advised for page designs with large photos. This step consumes a lot
of computer resources, you may wish to load only hi-res images that you will
actually use.
STEP 6: CREATE PDF
Press Create PDF button. The created PDF file will be either saved to Downloads
folder or displayed, depending on your browser. This process may take few
seconds, depending on how fast your computer is.
ADDITIONAL NOTES
Front page text gets populated automatically with Londonhouse Report information
for property address and agent name. You can freely edit the text fields. Back
page agent information and images get populated automatically from the
Londonhouse Report agent banner.
If you modify contents of the second text field ("Presented by") in the front
page design, it will get stored and will override the auto-generated text. To
cancel this behaviour, clear the text field before loading Londonhouse Report.
As an advanced feature, instead of the box with selected background color
underneath the text on the front page or auto-generated agent banner on the back
page, you can load your custom branding banner images in JPG or PNG
(recommended) formats. You can delete address and other text for the front page
when using a custom banner. Custom banner should be at least 2000 pixels wide to
print well. Height of custom banner should be adjusted to provide desired look.
In 4-page design, page design #3 for inside pages allows entering custom property
description text. Once that page design is selected, a field to enter text will
appear.
