Recall Format
Description The ^XF command recalls a stored format to be merged with variable data.
There can be multiple
^XF commands in one format, and they can be located anywhere within
the code.
When recalling a stored format and merging data using the
^FN (Field Number) function, the
calling format must contain the
^FN command to merge the data properly.
While using stored formats reduces transmission time, no formatting time is saved. The ZPL II
format being recalled is saved as text strings that need to be formatted at print time.
