Lists in Templates - Bullets & Numbered

We create various types of lists in documents. You can design templates to include various types of Bullets or Numbered lists.

We can understand this through some examples -

Let us take an example where the names of employees are shown in Bullet lists.

The template design would be like this -

<<foreach [bullet in EmployeeNames]>><<[bullet.listFirstName]>> <<[bullet.listLastName]>>
<</foreach>>

The data for the template is -

{
  "companyName":"PDF4me",  
  "EmployeeNames": [
  {
    "listFirstName": "Thomas",
    "listLastName": "Baskin"
  },
  {
    "listFirstName": "Jacob",
    "listLastName": "Gregory"
  },
  {
    "listFirstName": "John",
    "listLastName": "Doe"
  }
 ]
}

Adding Multi-level List

Here we can take an example of creating a multi-level list of Managers and Associates in a company. Look at the following template design -

<<foreach [manager in employees]>> Manager: <<[manager.listFirstName]>> <<[bullet.listLastName]>>
    <<foreach [associate in employee.associates]>> Associate:  <<[associate.name]>>
<</foreach>><</foreach>>

The data for above template syntax -

{
  "companyName": "PDF4me",
  "employees": [
  {
    "listFirstName": "Christopher",
    "listLastName": "Nolan",
    "associates": [
      {
        "name": "Will Smith"
      },
      {
        "name": "Barry Allen"
      },
      {
        "name": "Oliver Queen"
      }
    ]
  },
  {
    "listFirstName": "Sarah",
    "listLastName": "Parker"
  },
  {
    "listFirstName": "Justin",
    "listLastName": "Langer",
    "colleagues": [
      {
        "name": "Brad Pitt"
      },
      {
        "name": "John Smith"
      }
    ]
  }
 ]
}
