Data type Description
Variable Generally refers to computer-produced information that the LPS
merges with a form. Typically this data varies from page to
page.
Forms Refers to information that is used to print the form, such as
lines between columns and rows, boxes, and shading. Forms
data also refers to information that is part of the form, such as
titles, headings, captions, logos, and signatures. Forms data
typically does not vary from page to page.
