Designing a layout from an Auto Format template

In addition to allowing you to draw pictures and arrange text using any of the available fonts, sizes, and styles, P-touch Editor comes with a variety of pre-formatted templates, which make creating label layouts quick and easy. Now let's see how simple it is to create a label layout with the [Auto Format] command.

On an IBM PC-compatible computer:

①Select the [Auto Format] command in the [File] menu to start up the Auto Format Wizard.
② In the "Category:" box, select the category containing the Auto Format template that you wish to use. As an example, let's select "NAMEPLT".
③Click the Next button.

4 In the "Template:" list view, select the template that you wish to use. Here, let's select the one named NAMEPLT2.LBL.
⑤ Click the Next button.

⑥ Click the Next or the Previous buttons until the text that you wish to change appears in the "Input:" edit box.

⑦ Change the text so that the desired text is entered.

8 Repeat steps 6 and 7 until all of the text is entered in the way that you want, and then click the Next button. For this example, let's change the department name to "IMPORTS, INC.", the title to "Manager" and the name to "BILL REYNOLDS".

⑨Check that the layout contains the text that you want to use.

10 Click the Finish button. A new layout document containing the preformatted text is created.

On a Macintosh computer:

①Select the [Auto Format] command in the [File] menu to display the Auto Format dialogue box.

② In the "Category:" list box, select the category containing the template that you wish to use. For this example, let's select "shop".

③ In the "Template:" list box, select the template that you wish to use. Let's select the one named shop3.lbl.

④Click the OK button. A new layout containing the selected preformatted text is created and the Auto Text dialogue box is displayed.

⑤Click the Next or the Previous buttons until the text that you wish to change appears in the "Input:" edit box. Here, the first line of text that we wish to change, "CAMERA", is already displayed.

⑥ Change the text so that the desired text is entered. We can start by changing the product name to "VCR".

⑦ Repeat steps ⑤ and ⑥ until all of the text is entered in the way that you want, and then click the Next button. Let's finish editing the text by changing the original price to "\415." and the sale price to "\215."

⑧ Click the Close button. The text in the layout is replaced by the newly entered text.

Importing a graphics file

With the P-touch Editor application, you can also import images files in a variety of formats (.bmp, .dib, .jpg, .tif, .ico, and .wmf on the PC or PICT, JPEG, TIFF and BMP on the Mac) into your layout.

① With a layout document displayed, select the [Image] command in the [Insert] menu (in the PC software) or the [Object] menu (in the Mac software). A dialogue box that allows you to select the image file appears.

Barcode

Keep the following points in mind when using P-touch Editor Version 3.1 to print barcodes.

• Barcodes should be printed on white tape. If other colours of tape are used, the barcode reader may not be able to read the barcode correctly.
• Be sure to test the barcode reader to make sure that it can read printed barcodes in the environment where you plan to use them. In some cases, the barcodes are not read correctly.
• The QR Code protocol can only be used with English. If data in any other language is entered, the barcode may not be read correctly.

Databases

- For general details, refer to the User's Guide supplied on the P-touch Editor Version 3.1 CD-ROM.

Keep the following points in mind when using the database functions of P-touch Editor Version 3.1.

• The database function of P-touch Editor Version 3.1 (Windows ^ version) uses database files that are compatible with Microsoft Access 97. By upgrading P-touch Editor Version 3.1 using a program available on the CD-ROM, P-touch Editor will become compatible with Access 2000. Refer to the Readme file located at English\Ptouch\Editor\Ac2k on the CD-ROM (the folder name for French is “Francais”), and start up the program.
• P-touch Editor Version 3.1 can import files other than mdb files, such as csv files. Files saved as csv files with an application such as Microsoft® Excel can be used with P-touch Editor. Refer to the User's Guide supplied on the P-touch Editor Version 3.1 CD-ROM for more details.
• Using a function available with Microsoft ^ Access 97, Excel files can be linked to mdb files. With this function, data changed in Excel is automatically updated with the P-touch Editor.
