Defining an Ellips eField (Re quire d)
The EllipseField tag defines a circle or an oval. Use ellipses to form borders or highlight items
of interest.
It contains the following attribute: id.
Syntax
ellipse field information
id
The identifier (name) of t he field. Any
applications using LNT should reference this
data. Use any 32-charact er ma ximum
(UNI CODE) string. Do no t use the same name
for t wo fields or an erro r occurs!
Example
ellipse field information
Specifies an ellipse field called “Circle1” in the LNT file.
Defining the BoundingBox Tag (Required)
The BoundingBox tag defines the area on the label where the ellipse field appears. Each field
on a label must fit inside a bounding box.
It contains the following attributes: units, x, y, height, and width.
Syntax
units
Unit of measure. Options:
Inches
Inches
MM
Millimeters
Pi xels
Pi xels (default)
x
X-Coordinate of the Origi n corner of the bounding bo x. Use an integer o r fl oat
(in selected units) that is less than the width.
y
Y-Coordinate of the Origi n corner of the bounding bo x. Use an integer o r fl oat
(in selected units) that is less than the height.
height
The height (in selected u nits) of the print area. Us e an integer or float
value that is less than the image height. Use zero t o let the printer determine
the height.
width
The width (in selected units) of the print area. Use an integer or float value
that is less than the image width. Use zero to let t he printer determine the
width.
Example
Sets the coordinates for the ellipse field’s bounding box and specifies the height as 0.20
inches and the width as 0.80 inches.
