You may add as many as 24 messages to the layout in any position on the media by simply enabling a
text field in the “Layout Editor – Text Field Properties” window. Then drag the text field from the blotter
area to the position you would like to have it appear on the media. Double click on the new field and
modify it in the Text Field Editor window.
The Logo icon is used to add
logos and graphics in .BMP format
to your design. When you click on
the icon or access it from the
Fields drop box, under Logos, the
window on the right appears. You
may add up to eight logos to the
layout. Each logo is selected by
first activating one of the Logo
Enable buttons and then browse
for the desired file in the Logo
folder using the Browse button.
The AstroJet 1000 is a 600-dpi
printer. When creating graphics 1-
inch is equal to 600 pixels. A logo
or graphics that is 300 pixels tall
will print the width of a single
printhead or 1/2” high. If you wish
to print a logo or graphic that would
span two or more connected printheads it has to be taller than 300 pixels.
NOTE: Store all your logos in the LOGO folder in BMP format.
Once you have found the logo you wish to use, click OK. The screen will return to the Layout Editor
and the logo will appear in the lower right hand corner of the layout in the blotter area. Use your
mouse to place the logo or graphic on the layout.
Press this button to add the USPS bar code to the address. Presses the number 1 Enable
button and then select the Field where the bar code is located in the database. Then press OK. The
bar code will appear in the lower right hand corner of your screen just below the layout in the blotter
area. Click and drag the bar code to its position under the address as shown.
CAUTION: You must have all the
USPS barcode digits (with or
without check digit) in a dingle
database field to use this icon.
Otherwise use the text field
method below.
IMPORTANT NOTE: In this case
the bar code displayed in the
Layout Editor view is a
representation of the bar code on
your layout. If you use the data
base view function in the Layout
Editor, the bar code will appear the
same for each record. When the
record is printed on the AstroJet
1000 Printer the bar code will be
the correct one for each zip code in
the database.
