Well it is for me to take up the gauntlet then. I'll try to make a set off macros and when successful, I'll put them on the WiKi. I am thinking about the following: A macro to input several fields. The input's the same length and starting at the same character every time position. Like (looks only correct with a mono-spaced font): Contact Details: Company: ________________________________________ Name: ________________________________________ Address: ________________________________________ ZIP City: ________________________________________ E-mail: ________________________________________ Phone: ________________________________________ GSM: ________________________________________ Which would be called with something like: \multiple-input{ "Contact Details" 40 "Company" "Name" "Address" "ZIP City" "E-mail" "Phone" "GSM" } And properly make a macro for this one also, because this will be info that is requested often. Next will be creating check (or radio) buttons. Would it be a good idea to use different 'boxes' for those? I was thinking about: Did you find this workshop useful? [ ] Yes [ ] No [ ] A little bit This would be generated with: \radio-buttons{ Did you find this workshop useful? "Yes" "No" "A little bit" } Next would be a construction like (always using the complete line): What did you find the most useful? ________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________ This would be generated with: \multiline-input{ what did you find the most useful? 10 } Is this an useful way to tackle this? Are there other input elements I should define? Elements should always be on one page. How can I make sure this will be the case? Any tips about how to write those macros? -- Cecil Westerhof M CLDWesterhof@gmail.com O< ascii ribbon campaign - stop html mail - www.asciiribbon.org Please do not send me Microsoft Office/Apple iWork documents.
