Systems: Guide for Use with ID Works Software

Edge To Edge Printing

Because the 150i System does not support graphics, Edge To Edge

Printing, if selected, will be ignored.

Do not attempt to use edge-to-edge printing on a 275/280P/295

System, either by supplying a background graphic that covers the

entire card or by placing fields closer than 0.1 inch (2.5 mm) from any

edge of the card.

Rotate Print Orientation 180 Degrees

Because the emboss and indent fonts can operate in only one

orientation, this selection is not supported. If your 275/280P/295

System includes the UltraGrafix option, you can rotate graphics fields

and text fields that use TrueType or OpenType fonts on a field-by-

field basis.

Portrait Orientation

Because the emboss and indent fonts can operate only in landscape

orientation, this selection is not supported. If your 275/280P/295

System includes the UltraGrafix option, you can rotate graphics fields

and text fields that use TrueType or OpenType fonts on a field-by-

field basis to achieve a portrait effect.

Back Side of Card

See the Designer online help topic, “Create a two-sided card”. The

only types of fields that are allowed on the back side of a card are:

• Magnetic Stripe — used with the Datacard 150i or 275/280P/295

Magstripe Plug-in to encode magnetic stripes. The Card

Personalization System does not need to have magnetic stripe

fonts installed. If your card design includes a magnetic stripe

field, it cannot use magnetic stripe fonts.

• Text that specifies an indent font installed in the System.

For convenience in positioning a text field using an indent font,

you can place a Non-Printable Area on the back side of a card

and then position the text field on top of the non-printable area.

• Text — up to three fields that specify a magnetic stripe font

installed in the System. If your card design includes text fields

that specify a magnetic stripe font, it cannot use an ID Works
