Text Fields
Text fields include letters, numbers, and special printing and non-
printing characters. When creating a text field, specify which font to
use. You can use one of several printer-resident fonts or one of your
own.
A field can contain up to 200 characters. Use carriage returns and/or
line feeds in the data to avoid having the field run off the label.
If a character is not in the font the printer is using, the printer prints a
space in place of the character. See “Font Download,” in Chapter 3
for information about downloading other fonts. Also, see “Library
Management,” in Chapter 3 for information about deleting fonts.
