Creating Labels with Other Applications

When installing the software, if you choose the Add-In function, a P-touch®icon will be automatically added onto the Microsoft® Word, Excel, and Outlook® toolbar. (Only if Microsoft® Word, Excel, Outlook® are already installed on your computer.) The Add-In function is valid for Windows® only.

In each application, by choosing the text you want to print and clicking on the P-touch®icon, you can create and print labels quickly and easily.

Depending on the setting, the character string that is downloaded by using Add-In function will be registered to Label List. Label List is a database for exclusively P-touch®Editor. To display Label List, click [File]- [Database]-[Label List].

Microsoft® Word 2000/2002/2003/2007, Microsoft® Excel 2000/2002/2003/2007, and Microsoft® Outlook® 2000/2002/2003/2007
