The Formatting tab options are:

Use Organization Address for Members: if checked, the system will substitute the organization's City, State, and Zip code for any member where such information has not been provided.

Form of Address:Clicking this button causes display of the Addressing OptionsWindow. On this window you select the form of salutatory address you would like to use for display and the form of salutatory address you would like to use for printing (each one can be different); such as use of Mr. and Mrs., and use of husband's first name only or first initial and/or wife's first name only or first initial.

In the following discussion, as an example we will use a husband name of Mr. Barry Abraham Lastname and wife’s name of Mrs. Linda Sarah Lastname

The options are as follows:

Title:
Together – displays title as Mr. And Mrs. Barry Lastname
Separate – displays title as Mr. Barry and Mrs. Linda Lastname
None – displays as Barry and Linda Lastname
Note: The title values are taken from settings for each individual member on the View Window.

Conjunction: the first conjunction setting controls whether you display “&” or “and” between separate husband and wife titles, such as Mr. & Mrs. or Mr. and Mrs.

First Names:
Both full names - Barry and Sarah Lastname
Man full name – Barry Lastname
Woman full name – Sarah Lastname
Both initials - B. and S. Lastname
Man first initial - B. Lastname
Woman first initial - S. Lastname
No first names - Lastname

Conjunction: the second conjunction setting controls whether you display “&” or “and” between the husband and wife’s first names if both first names are displayed.

Middle Names:
Full middle names – Barry Abraham and Linda Sarah Lastname
First Initial – Barry A. and Linda S.Lastname
No middle names – Barry and Linda Lastname

Order:
Last, First – Lastname, Mr. Barry and Linda
First, Last – Mr. Barry and Linda Lastname

There are 2 modes for the Form of Address option; one controls Display of names (what form of address will appear on the screen while you are using the program) and the other controls Printing of names (what form of address will appear on statements, reports, etc). You can have completely different settings for each one. The example panel in the lower right of the window displays what the names will look like using each setting chosen. To make a setting take effect you must click the Update button.

Default: No salutation, both full first names, ampersand(&) as separator

Organization: this option allows you to enter or modify the organization address that will appear on statements and other forms that will be printed. The organization's second address line (city, state, zip) is also used as the second address line for any member that is not given its own second-line address if the Use org address (see above) option is on. If the second address line for a member is provided as a dash followed by 4 digits, then that value is appended to the organization's second line address and used as the member's second address line with a 9-digit zip code, used by the post office for more accurate and quicker mail delivery. Thus, if most members of the organization live in the same town and/or zip code, only the last 4 digits of a 9-digit zip code need be provided as part of each member's address data. If 9-digit zip codes are not used, then you can leave the member's second line address blank, if he resides in the same zip code as the organization.
Default: none

English Font Settings: allow you to choose the Font name, Font size, and Font attributes for English printing.

The logo file for documents must be a .bmp-format file. To use the logo on a document, insert the [logo] directive into your template (see the Templates help section) and the system will get the logo from the file you specified with this option.
If a document is to be converted for e-mail sending (Yahrzeit Notifications, for example), then the logo file name will be replaced by the html address for the logo.
