Formatting
A variety of formatting functions are available for
making more decorative and customized labels.
The appearance of characters can be changed
using the text formatting functions Font, Size,
Width, Style1, Style2, Line Effects, Frame, Align-
ment and Text Rotation. Most text formats can be
applied to a single text line, a single text block or
all of the text. However, the Text Rotation func-
tion can only be applied to single text blocks or
the entire text. When the text format for a line is
changed and text is added to the line, the format
remains applied until it is changed again.
The label formatting functions (Tape Margin,
Tape Length, Block Margin, Block Length and
Mirror Printing) specify the general appearance
of the label. The label formatting functions will
be applied to the entire text. In addition, the
Block Length function can be applied to single
blocks.
