(maximum=700 pixels).
(6) User Profile Field: Select a field from the pull-down list if you want to associate this
item with a field from the user profile field.
Profile Mapping—Associate values in the template (such as first name, last
name, address, etc.) with values in the buyer account profile. The default for each
value is No Association, which does not map the template field to a value. This
feature enables buyers to auto-populate template fields when personalizing variable
data products with data from their buyer profile (i.e., they do not have to manually
re-key information such as their name and address when creating a personalized
variable data document).
(7) Order on page—Select the position for the field on the page (with 1 being at the
topmost position) from the pull-down list.
(8) Show on page—Select the page on which to display this field (e.g., if you are setting the
input page for this product to span more than one page).
(9) Enforce formatting—Enables you to force buyer input to conform to a particular
format. The format can be either a known pattern (e.g., United States Phone Number)
or a custom pattern (e.g., using terms in a regular expression).
•
Use known pattern: Select a pattern from the pull-down list.
•
Use custom pattern: Enter the custom pattern in the Pattern text box using a
regular expression (or regex) recipe. An Internet search using the search term
“regex” will help you locate a glossary of regular expressions for formatting. For
example: The regular expression for the U.S. phone number format (000) 000-
