Control Characters

The Encodian population engine supports the insertion of common control characters often found in documents.

Insert a Page Break

Example Document: Encodian - Template Syntax - Control - Page Break.docx

Example JSON Data:

{
  "members": [
  {
    "listFirstName": "Efren",
    "listLastName": "Gaskill",
    "age": 45,
    "homeTown": "Clearwater"
  },
  {
    "listFirstName": "Sanly",
    "listLastName": "Keyme",
    "age": 19,
    "homeTown": "Kensington"
  },
  {
    "listFirstName": "Mark",
    "listLastName": "Nigma",
    "age": 36,
    "homeTown": "Silver Spring"
  }
 ]
}

The template contains the following Control Character which informs the engine where to insert the page break:

<<[ControlChar.PageBreak]>>

This generates the following output:
