When you change or reset a labeling application type, the text typed in is automatically used in
the new labeling application type except in the following cases:
- Changing from PUNCH-DOWN BLOCK is set to Horizontal or Backbone with sequenced
text
- Changing to PUNCH-DOWN BLOCK with sequenced text set to Horizontal or Backbone
When a labeling application type is changed, the text typed in is automatically moved to the new
labeling application type by block units. Blank pages will be deleted but not the blocks.
The new labeling application type is created for the text typed into to fit into each block.
When the total number of blocks from the previous labeling application type cannot be divided
into the total number of blocks in the new labeling application type, the difference is filled with
empty blocks.
When the total number of blocks from the previous labeling application type exceeds the total
number of blocks in the new labeling application type, the excess blocks are deleted.
