Price Fields

You can design a price field so the printer generates the
monetary symbols. You need to enter only numbers in the
batch.

Sub-fields

You can copy part of a field to a new location. The new location
is called a sub-field. For example, you can extract part of the
data in a bar code, such as a price, and display it in text form in
a sub-field.

Merged fields

Merged fields are a combination of information from other
fields. You can merge any combination of text, non-printable
text, or bar code fields.

Incrementing/Decrementing fields

You can specify numeric fields to increase or decrease in value
as you print. This option applies only to numeric data. For
example, you could print a batch of labels with serial numbers
that increase with each label.

Check digits

You can have the printer generate check digits for text or bar
code fields. See Chapter 4, "Using Check Digits."
