Double-click Text.
A new Text object is added to your label.
3. Move and resize the object as necessary.
4. Enter some text in the Text object.
5. Format the text using the formatting toolbar.
6. Right-clickthe object, and then choose Properties.
7. Make any desired changes in the Text Object Properties dialog box, and then click
OK.
To resize an object, select the object and drag a handle on the bounding box.
