In Rentman, users are able to customize their documents to reflect their company's visual identity and branding. This article shows how to customize the visuals of your document using our document editor.
Within the editor, you have two distinct areas for adjusting visuals: the document as a whole and each individual module (such as Equipment, Sum, Crew Functions, etc.).
Where do I go to edit my document and module styles?
- Go to the settings Configuration > Document Templates
- Select the template you want to edit.
- Right side menu, select icon to adjust document visuals as a whole or
- Select a module first > select icon to edit the visuals of that module specifically.
Document Styles
When editing your document style, you have three areas to target your customization. Editing the styles here will affect your entire document:
- Text: Change the text of the entire document.
- Headers: Change the header text of each module and any text with the heading 1 or 2.
- Table Module: Change the format and text for all the tables within your document modules.
Tip: Don't know what part of the document you are targeting? Change the colors to see specifically what part of the document you are editing.
If you wish to make more changes to the styling of the document that are not offered in our editor, you can do this with the use of CSS.
Please note that the support team does not provide CSS support. We do offer template creation by our professional services team. If you are interested, please click on this link.
Save as a theme
Once you've edited your document style to completion, you can now save it as a theme and use it throughout your workspace. Simply click on Save as a Theme and name the theme.
Apply an existing theme to your template
- Open the Style menu by clicking
- Click "Select theme" and select your theme of choice.
- Select
Module Styles
When editing with the module style, first select the module. Editing the styles here will only affect the chosen module.
Note: Different modules will have different styles available to edit.
An excellent application of this styling would be within the equipment module. From there, you have the option to target and edit the serial number, virtual combination content, physical combination content, comment line and equipment group remark. This is can help organize and refine your documents.
Change your fonts via Google Font
If you wish to change the font of your documents in a font that we do not offer, it is possible to apply Google Font via CSS:
- In the Document Styles , select "Edit CSS"
- Paste the following code in the CSS popup:
body, td, th, p {
GOOGLE FONT CSS HERE
} -
Open a new tab in your browser, and go to Google Fonts.
- Choose one of the many available fonts.
- Click on "+ Select this style" next to a font to add it to your document
- Click on the bar to open it, and copy the code in the "Specify in CSS" field (e.g.: font-family: 'Montserrat', sans-serif; )
- Go back to the tab with the Rentman Template editor, and replace "GOOGLE FONT CSS HERE" with the code in the CSS popup.
- Save
Note: The new font won't appear in the Template editor, but it will appear in the document once you generate it.
