Creating a Paragraph Text Field
There are two methods for adding paragraphs on your labels from the Loftware Label Manager designer:
l Click the Paragraph Tool from the Loftware Label Manager Toolbox, and then drop a paragraph
text field on your label.
l Change the Paragraph attribute in the Loftware Label Manager Properties box for a variable text
field to Yes.
Note: Field position is important to understand for paragraph text fields since the justification attributes (left,
right, and center) should be considered for all applications that utilize paragraphs.
Processing Paragraph Text Fields at Print-Time
Paragraphs are displayed within the Loftware Label Manager WYSIWYG or GUI designer. It is only
during a production print run, however, that Loftware Label Manager knows what data is going to be
processed and printed.
Not all printers supported by Loftware Label Manager have internal paragraphing capabilities.
Therefore, Loftware Label Manager automatically parses the data input at print time and splits the text
into appropriate sub-fields. These sub-fields are then justified and sent to the printer.
Images and Graphics
The Loftware Label Manager has an image importer and manipulation utility that can directly read
many popular image file formats including .BMP, .JPG, .GIF, and .TIF.
Important: If the currently selected printer does not support graphic images, the graphics creation and editing
functions are disabled.
