Chapter 1. Introduction
You can use graphic packets to create
♦ Compliance Labels.
♦ Bitmapped images.
This chapter gives an overview of both approaches. To include a graphic
packet within your format, your format must contain a Graphic Field. Refer to
Chapter 4, “Placing the Graphic in a Format,” for more information.
Overview of Compliance Labels______________________________
You can create compliance labels by using a graphic packet for the fixed fields
and a format packet for the variable fields of your compliance label. The fixed
fields of a compliance label are composed of text, lines, or boxes, which are
repeated on each label. The variable fields are composed of text, bar codes,
and order information, which change with each label. Using a graphic packet
for the fixed fields saves time, because the printer does not have to image all
the lines or boxes each time the compliance label is printed.
Also, using a graphic packet for a compliance label reduces the number of
fields in your format. Formats have a maximum number of fields per packet
(0-99). However, you can bypass that requirement by placing your
compliance layout in a graphic packet. When you process your formats, you
only need one line to call the graphic packet.
