12.1 Column Printing
With this direct print module several columns can be printed, i.e. the
information of one column can be printed several times (depending on
its width) on a layout. Caused by this the use of the complete print
width is possible and the generating time is enormously reduced.
For example 4 columns with a width of 25 mm or 2 columns with a
width of 50 mm can be printed onto a layout with a width of 100 mm.
Please note that the first layout is always the one with the largest x
coordinate, i.e. it has the largest distance to the printhead.
