Justification
Justification refers to the alignment of data between boundaries (margins) on a label or in an area.
There are two types of justification: horizontal and vertical. Horizontal justification (H. Justify) aligns
data between the left and right boundaries of a label or area, while Vertical justification (V. Justify)
aligns data between the top and bottom boundaries of a label or area. Justification is applied to an
area or a label. It cannot be applied line-by-line.
Figure 3-4. Justification examples
To apply justification:
1. Navigate to the label or area where justification is to be applied.
2. To apply justification to a label, press Label.
OR
To apply justification to an area, press FN and Area.
3. Choose H. Justify or V. Justify.
4. Choose the horizontal or vertical justification desired.
Every line of data on the label or in an area is justified according to the option selected. When adding a
new label, the justification maintains the current justification settings until it is changed. Different
justification can be applied to individual labels in a multi-label file or different areas on one label.
Rotate
Rotation flips the data on a label or in an area, counter-clockwise, at 90° increments. Rotation affects
all data on a label or in an area.

Note: If rotation is applied individually to areas, you cannot apply rotation to the entire label.
Data cannot be rotated on a line-by-line basis. When adding a new area or label, the rotation is the
same as the previous area or label.
