Working with Objects on a Label
Depending on the label type, you can add one or more text box, image, barcode,
or shape objects to customize your label.
See
Using the Label Applications

can be used on each label type.
Some label types have pre-designed templates with objects already in place. You
only need to add your content. When you start a new label using a pre-designed
template, you can add or edit objects on that label, but you cannot change the
original template.
