PW.Dest_City: Only the city portion of this field will be truncated. The state
portion will be ignored, if it’s there. Label Toolbox ignores the destination
facility prefix (ADC, BMC, and so on), and reduces the directional to one
letter first. The minimum remaining length is 12 characters.
Trim spaces In the Field Properties window designate how (extra) spaces in the field should be
removed. You can choose to have spaces removed on the right, left, or both sides
of the data in the field.
The Trim Spaces option does not affect leading or trailing characters set in this
window. It only affects data from within the field.
How to resize field
objects in the layout
You can view the fields on your
layout in a normal or collapsed
state. When fields are collapsed,
you can fit more fields onto a line
of your layout.
This does not affect your output.
You cannot fit more data on your
label than the length of the label
will allow. If the data in your
fields is longer than the length of
your label, it will be cut off.
To ensure that you have enough
room on your label for the fields
you want, choose View > Label Preview. See “Preview labels” on page 72.
To collapse or expand a field:
1. Select a field on your layout.
2. Right-click, and choose Collapse Field or Expand Field.
Tips A red arrow appears to the right of the first letter of a collapsed field.
If you aren’t sure what the collapsed field contains, place your cursor over
the collapsed field, and the name of the field appears.
