☞ If the number or order of fields in a database are changed and only the database (*.csv
file) is transferred to update it, the database may not link correctly with the template. In
addition, the first line of data in the transferred file must be recognized by the P-touch
machine as “field names”, otherwise the database cannot be used to print.
☞ A P-touch Editor layout that uses the split printing function (enlarging the label and
printing it on 2 or more labels) cannot be transferred.
☞ The label length settings in P-touch Editor and the P-touch machine, may differ slightly
due to minor variations in mechanical operation.
