Add a supplemental page

Include a supplemental page in a report to enhance it with supportive visual material. You can insert supplemental pages above or below the report or other supplemental pages. You can add both layouts that are in the project and external layout files (.pagx) as a supplemental page. Layouts in the project that you add as a supplemental page remain dynamic. Changes made after you add a supplemental page to a report are included when the report is shared. When inserting a layout file, the layout and all the maps it references are added to the project.

Add a supplemental page to a report

To include a supplemental page with a report, do the following:

1. Right-click Report in the Contents pane. Alternatively, right-click an existing supplemental page in the report document view.

3. Browse to the layout or layout file. Click OK.

   Note:

   Layouts of the same page size or smaller are recommended. A warning appears if the chosen layout has a page size that is larger than the report, as the resulting supplemental page will be clipped when shared.
