Area ( )Text formatting with the Area function is differ-
ent from creating a new block using the New
Block function. With the Area function, text
within a line or group of lines can be selected so
that its text formats can be changed. The
selected text can also be deleted or copied and
pasted in a different place in the text.
The following two labels show how these func-
tions can be used.
The multiple blocks in this label were created
using the New Block function. The first block of
this text contains a single line, the second con-
tains four lines, and the third, two lines.
This is a single-block, single-line label with dif-
ferent parts of the text formatted using the Area
function. After all of the text was typed in, sec-
tion “(123) 456-7890” was selected and given a
smaller character size.
