   Note the following points about Print rulers:

   • Print rulers can only be selected when performing immediate printing from the Print Option window.
   • If a report has a Print ruler named DEFAULT, that ruler is automatically used for the Deferred Printing of the report.
   • Currently, Dynamic Extraction parameters are supported only in View rulers. In a future version, they will also be supported in Print rulers.
