Adding International Characters
The labelmaker supports the extended Latin
character set using RACE technology. Similar to
using a mobile phone keypad, if you type a letter
multiple times within a very short time, you will
scroll through variations on that letter.
For example, if French is selected as the language
and you repeatedly press the letter a, you will see a
а в ж and so on through all the variations
available. The character variations and the order in
which the variations appear depend on the
language you have selected to use.
Currency Symbols
The currency key $ also uses RACE technology to
scroll through a number of currency symbols:
€ £ $ ¢ ¥
The order these symbols appear depends on the
language you have selected.
