CMA Stationery

Under the Customize Report tab, you can enhance the appearance of your CMA with background images and custom office stationery. Stationery must be set for each section and you may select different images for each section.

You can create and upload custom images to use as your CMA stationery. These can be created in your favorite image/photo editing program, or in a program as basic as Microsoft Paint. The recommended size for stationery to fill a standard letter size page is 700 pixels wide x 930 pixels long. Larger images will be scaled down and all images will be included as a background image in the center of the page. Once your image is created, you can upload it using the Manage Stationery link under the Reports tab or above your list of CMA Worksheets.

  1. Click Manage CMA Stationery under the Reports tab’s CMA section.
  2. Click Add New Stationery.
  3. Here you can create a name for your stationery and upload an image to appear as the background. 

Once your stationery is uploaded, you can select it in your CMA sections.
