24 Label Studio User’s Guide
Quick ways to set up jobs
There are two ways to set up your jobs:
 The Wizard
 The Job Editor
Wizard Label Studio offers a step-by-step wizard (File > New > Wizard). It’s great for
simpler jobs or new users. When you’re more familiar with Label Studio, you can
get started in the Wizard, and then switch to the Job Editor to fine-tune your
settings or add more features. Use the Wizard for creating new jobs. See “Create a
tray label design file with the Label Toolbox Wizard” on page 30.
Job Editor The Job Editor (File > New > Job Editor) gives you access to all of the features
and options available in Label Studio. Therefore, it is more appropriate for users
with some experience in Label Studio. Use the Job Editor when you want to reuse
an existing job file, or alter one of our sample jobs. See “Create an address label
job with the Job Editor” on page 31.
Sample jobs To help you start preparing your own Label Studio jobs, we provide a set of
sample job files. We even include a sample database, and the format and
definition files, too. We designed these sample jobs so you can:
 Ensure that Label Studio is installed correctly.
 Familiarize yourself with running a completed Label Studio job file.
For now, we invite you to edit one of the sample job files that we provide. The
Samples folder, containing the sample job files and auxiliary files is located in
your installation directory.
