Designing a Label
Figure 3.30: Step 1 - Add fixed text fields for return address
Note: Loftware Label Manager displays fonts that are available on the selected printer. Depending on your
printer’s font sizes, your label may look different from the samples. You may also have to adjust the positions of
fields slightly by moving them.
Step 2: Creating the "Ship To" Fixed Text Field
1.
Select the Label (fixed text) tool .
2. When positioning the next fixed text field, use the screen odometer to guide. Notice how the
descriptors in the screen odometer change as you move the mouse. Position the mouse so that the
screen odometer reads approximately .5, 1.0 (½ inch from the left edge; 1 inch from the top)and
left click.
Note: The position does not need to be precise. You can always reposition the text field later.
3. Type "SHIP TO" press Enter twice.
Step 3: Creating the Variable Text Fields
In the sample label, create variable text fields to accommodate the customer ship to address. Assume
that each ship-to address requires four lines of text as shown in the example below. Because the fourth
line of text features three variable fields (CITY, STATE, ZIP), you will actually create the following
variable text fields for this label:
(1) SHIP TO COMPANY NAME
(2) ADDRESS 1
(3) ADDRESS 2
(4) CITY
(5)STATE
(6)ZIP
