    REMEMBER: The path to the file must be 52 characters or less or the import will fail. For example, use ‘C:\Tyler Bottom Invoices\tp1_bottom.txt’ instead of something like ‘C:\Documents and Settings\User1\My Documents\Tyler Invoices\tp1_bottom.txt’).

  1. The file is uploaded to your system.
    NOTE: You cannot delete existing entries. If you need to change the bottom text file after upload, simply make changes to the spreadsheet and re-upload it using steps 1-4. As long as the filename hasn’t changed, the existing bottom text is completely replaced with the new bottom text and these modifications are reflected on the invoice the next time it is printed.
