The Practice Letterhead Tab

This window allows you to set up a letterhead which will be printed on invoices and added to letter templates when you select 'Your Letterhead' from the Expressions tab.

If each doctor in the practice wants to have a different letterhead select the Use Individual Letterheads checkbox, and set up the letterheads in their User Preferences.

Genie can fit approximately 8 lines onto an invoice letterhead, depending on font size. If you find your letterhead is being truncated on invoices, you will have to either reduce the font size or cut back on the number of lines.

You can click on the Create Default button to create a default template which you can then edit.

You can click on the Insert Picture button to insert a picture from your picture library. If you don’t already have a picture in your library, you can import it from an image on your hard drive by clicking the Add button in the window below

and then clicking on the Browse button in the window below,

and selecting the picture which you have presumably already created or scanned onto your hard drive.

Deleting a Corrupted Letterhead

Sometimes the Letterhead can become corrupted. The symptoms of this are that Genie is unable to print invoices and x-ray requests, because these are the main areas the letterhead is used.

We rarely encounter this problem and only on Macintosh computers.

However, if this does occur, the letterhead can be cleared by holding down the ALT key whilst selecting File > Practice Preferences.

You can then open the record and rebuild the letterhead.

If you are using individual doctor's letterheads i.e. the Letterhead from each doctor’s User Preferences, then you can clear these letterheads by holding down the ALT key whilst selecting File > User Preferences.
