Position the Cursor in the Assembled Document

You can cause HotDocs to place the cursor at a specified place in the assembled document once the user has completed an interview and sent the assembled document to the word processor. You do this by inserting a “TypeHere” bookmark in your template and then by selecting a component file property.

To insert a TypeHere bookmark

  1. Create a template or open an existing template for editing. (See Create a New Text Template File or Edit a Template.)
  2. Place the cursor in the template where you want your cursor to appear when the assembled document is sent to the word processor.
  3. Use your word processor’s functionality to create a bookmark. Name it TypeHere and insert it into the text. (See your word processor’s help file for information on creating bookmarks.)
  4. Open Component Manager. (See Open and Close Component Manager.) The Component Manager window appears.
  5. Click the Component File Properties button. The Component File Properties dialog box appears.
  6. Click the Assembly tab and select Move to the “Type Here” bookmark.
  7. Click OK.
