4.1 Relating to text objects
4.1.1 Font, size, etc.
Please also refer to “5.3 Relationship between the P-touch Editor settings and the printer image” on page 32
When a template is transferred to a printer, a font specified in P-touch Editor is changed to most similar
resident font in the printer.
Character sizes specified in P-touch Editor are converted to the closest built-in character size when the
data is sent to the printer.
Character sizes specified in P-touch Editor are all made the same size within an object.
Depending on the language of the computer used for transferring, either the Western European or the
Eastern European character set is used for characters within text objects.
“\” is used as control character for an external character. When “\” has to be used as a data, input “\\”.
When “At Printing” check box is NOT checked, the time and date when editing P-touch Editor is applied
and printed. When “At Printing” check box is checked, time and date is not printed.
“At Printing” setting
To cancel the “At Printing” setting for a date/time in P-touch Editor, display the properties for the Date and
Time object, and then clear the “At Printing” check box.
