Field Types
A label layout is made up of a number of fields. There are five
different types of field:
• Text Field
A text field consists of a single line of text.
• Bar Code Field
A bar code field consists of a single bar code,
with or without a bar code interpretation in
human readable characters.
• Image Field
An image field is a picture, drawing, logo or
other type of illustration in bitmap format.
• Box Field
A box field is a square or rectangular paper-
coloured area surrounded by a black border
line. If the border is sufficiently thick, the
whole area may appear black.
• Line Field
A line field is a black line that goes either
along or across the paper web. A short but
thick line can look like a black box.
There are no restrictions, other than the size of the memory, on the
number of fields on a single label.
