DESIGNING AN AUTO FORMAT LAYOUT
In addition to allowing you to draw pictures and arrange text using any of the available fonts,
sizes, and styles, P-touch Editor comes with a variety of pre-formatted templates, which make
creating label layouts quick and easy. Now let’s see how simple it is to create a label layout
with the Auto Format command.
To design a layout on an IBM PC-compatible computer:
1 On the File menu, click the Auto Format
command.
2 In the Category list of the Auto Format Wiz-
ard (1/4) dialog box, click the desired cate-
gory. As an example, let’s select NAMEPLT.
3 Click the Next button.
4 In the Template list view of the Auto Format
Wizard (2/4) dialog box, click the desired
template. Here, let’s select the one named
NAMEPLT2.LBL.
5 Click the Next button.
6 In the Auto Format Wizard (3/4) dialog box,
click the Next or the Previous button until
the text that you wish to change appears in
the Input edit box.
7 Type the new text into the Input edit box.
8 Repeat steps 6 and 7 until all of the text is
entered in the way that you want. For this
example, let’s change the department name
to “IMPORTS, INC.”, the title to “Manager”
and the name to “BILL REYNOLDS”.
