Note: Text tab option changes affect only new text objects you create. These settings do not affect objects provided by templates or QuickText labels.

The options are:

Units	Sets the unit of measure used for the type on your
	labels as:
	•	Points
	•	Inches
	•	mm (Millimeters)
	The default setting varies by country.

Font	Sets the default font style. Pull down the list and
	select a font style. The factory-installed fonts are:
	• Arial 65 for BRC
	• Arial for BRC (default)
	• Brush Script for BRC
	•	Tahoma
	• Times New Roman for BRC
	Your system may offer additional fonts installed by
	your organization.

Type Size	Sets the default type size. Enter the size you want to
	use as the default. Note that the system default size
	of 24 points is based on the largest type size that
	will fit on the smallest tape width (.5 inch).
	Hint! If you are working exclusively with a
		certain tape supply, you may find it useful
		to set the Type Size default setting to one
		appropriate for that tape width.
