Text Box
Configuration
(Option)
External Text Boxes
IMPORTANT:
Due to the complexity of configuring text boxes, use this
feature only with printers that have been tested and
approved by Kodak. If you are using this feature on a
printer with unknown characteristics, be sure to fully test
on site to avoid unexpected results.
The text in an External Text Box is printed outside the image area and does
not cover up anatomy. However, the box does require film area, thereby
reducing the overall size of the printed image. If True-size mode is selected,
then the system crops additional image data as compared to printing the
image without the External Text Box.
The CR System sends the External Text Box as a separate image file. The text
box you use depends on the capability of the printer. See
“Appendix B:
Printing Exceptions“ on page B-1 .
• Shrinks the image to fit - may not work with all printers.
• Impacts True-size printing.
• Prints an External Text Box across the bottom of the film.
Internal Text Box The CR System creates the Internal text box as part of the image and sends one
file to the printer. The Internal text box works with every printer.
• You select the text box location during image review.
