How to make labels

Adding:  

Industrial symbols

Adding:  

Arrows

Arrows for marking directions or for use with pipe marking 
labels can also be found in the LabelTac ‘Symbols’ folder in 
the ‘Arrows’ sub-folder. You can also insert or paste your own 
arrows in most image formats into your label. 

You can add industrial symbols 

(hazard pictograms, warning 

symbols, NFPA symbols, etc.)

 to your labels the same way as 

you would add other images 

(page 19)

. We include hundreds of 

free symbols in the LabelTac ‘Symbols’ folder. 

(See page 11 for 

installation instructions for LabelTac templates & symbols)
