Chapter 6 - Page Layout
Working with Page Layout Templates
Templates can be used for lots of different work flows and you can use multiple templates within
a queue. Templates will save you hours of time and allow you to automated repetitive tasks such
as laying out jobs as well as setup an automated work flow inside FastRIP if required. When us-
ing templates, jobs as they arrive can be automatically scaled, rotated and positioned.
NOTE: e templates are most useful when printing on garments with a T-Jet Inkjet-to Garment Printer.
Some of the uses for templates are:
Setting up a custom board size, where you can select the size of the print `
area and its exact position inside the print area of the bed
Setting up custom nesting of jobs, multiple board / print areas inside the `
print area of the bed (for example on the Blazer Pro setup 3 different shirt
boards).
Automatic duplication for print the same image on a number of golf balls `
or hat at the same time.
