Log Designer Introduction

The Log Designer is one of the main program tabs inside LogPlot, just click on the LogDesigner tab to bring this design window to the front. Using the Log Designer, you create the layout of the log, like a "blueprint". Once your log design is completed, you can use LogPlot to compile your data into the design, to result in a graphic log.

Log Designer contains the tools to design these parts of your log:

• The log header: Log headers are positioned at the top of the log (optionally at the top of each page) and can contain text, graphics, symbols, patterns, lines, and rectangles. A special header, called a "Title Page" can be a full page long and precede the first page of your log.
• 
  
• The log body: The main portion of the log, which can contain columns for lithologic patterns and descriptions, curves, bar graphs, fill bars, general and vertical text, well construction diagrams, raster images, symbol columns, and more.
• 
  
• The log footer: Log footers are placed at the bottom of the log (optionally at the bottom of each page) and can contain the same information as the header (text, graphics, symbols, patterns, lines, and rectangles).
