Default How to include text in document that doesnt show when printed?

Hi there

I am putting together some documentation for our team at work where certain place holders in documents will require specific information. Rather than including a spearate document with instructions, I would like to put a number of prompts and defaulted text in areas that can be overwritten with the necessary information or if no information is included then when the document is printed then the defaulted text doesnt appear.

An example would be a box for 'Special Instructions'. I would like the table cell to state "Please enter any specific instructions for item delivery here, such as safe place to leave item or specific contact details". The person filling in the form can either type over that text or if they leave the area blank (no additional text) then when the form is printed then the defaulted text doesnt show on the print out.

I am currently using Controls within the Developer tab such as Plain Text Content Control, Rich Text Content Control.



Regards

Ian
