Setting Up a Field for Numbering
1 Create the text field you want to use for numbering.
Create a text field and then input a number or letter that is the start
of numbering sequence.
If a carry to the left is expected, be sure to input a leading zero or
space.
Example:
099 100
_99 100 ("_" is a space.)
You can check the carry to left using the numbering preview (page
57).
2 Align the text field and format the layout.
3 Click the text field you want to use for numbering.
This selects the field.
4 On the Work Window (page 21), select the Numbering check box
under Text Properties.
This causes N to appear in the text field.
5 Configure the No. of Steps setting.
Specify the increment to be applied each time printing is
performed. For a series of numbers that increments by 1 each time
(such as 001, 002, etc.), specify 1 for the increment.
There is no change on the screen, but the number or letter in the
text field will be incremented with each printing.
Merge settings (page 50) cannot be configured for a field that has
been configured for numbering.
Configuring Settings on the Text Properties Screen
You can also use the procedure below to configure numbering settings.
1 Perform steps 1 through 3 under "Setting Up a Field for Numbering"
(page 56).
2 Click the Details button on Text Properties.
This is the same as clicking Text settings (T)... on the Settings (S)
menu.
It displays the Text Properties screen.
3 Select the Number (N) check box.
This causes N to appear in the text field.
