Preview Option
Choosing the Preview option allows you to preview the currently displayed
document to see how it will look when printed. The 
system colors will be turned off
to display the page as it will print.
In the Designer,  system colors are used to identify the different elements created in
each editor (as in an environment you can display an attached form and vice-versa).
Elements displayed in BLACK are those created in the 
current editor, and are
available for editing. Elements displayed in BLUE have been created in the alternate
editor and can be viewed but not edited. If an element is highlighted (targeted) for
editing, it is displayed in RED. In the Form Editor, overlay forms are displayed in
GREEN.
These system colors, including the RED text block numbers, are turned off when
Preview mode is activated. This allows the colors that have been added to dynamic
or static form elements to be displayed as they will print on a color printer.
 
NOTE
The Designer offers you the facility to quickly ‘switch editors’ to edit the  elements
in each editor (refer to Chapter 4).
