Adding a user-defined character image to the textIf a user-defined character image (a bitmap character not usually available on the
P-touch) is assigned to a PF key, that character can be added to any label that you create
on the P-touch.
●Press g, then the applicable PF key.
The character is added to the text at the
cursor’s position.
Using template dataA label layout created with P-touch Editor (*.lbl file) can be downloaded to the P-touch,
where it can be used as a template for printing labels. The templates can be printed using
text either from a database or text directly typed in.
When a database (*.mdb file created with P-touch Editor 3.2 or *.csv file) is downloaded
to the P-touch, data from selected records can be added to labels either using a template
linked to the database or using a new template. In addition, the data base data can be
searched to find specific records.
☞The P-touch can only contain one database at a time. However, the database can be
replaced or updated.
☞When data is downloaded to a PF key, it replaces the preset template initial ly
available on the P-touch. To restore the initial templates, use Transfer Manager to
download the *. pd3. files from the folder located at \etc\Transfer in the P-touch
Editor folder.
☞Only one character image or template can be assigned to a PF key. If a character
image or template is already assigned to a PF key, the previous data is erased when a
different character image or template is transferred.
☞Only the files that are selected will be transferred. To transfer m ore than one file at
the same time, hold down the keyboard’s Ctrl key, and then click the name of each
file that you wish to transfer.
☞To stop transferring the data, click “Cancel” in the dialog box that appea rs during
transfer.
☞Only a monochrome bitmap (*.bmp) file can be transferred to the P-touch.
☞A high-resolution file can be cut from a file with the specifications described above.
☞The downloaded image is automatically resized to the width of the tape being used.
