Placing the Graphic in a Format
The graphic image may be a bitmapped graphic or a compliance
label overlay.
To include a graphic within a format:
1. Design the graphic image as shown in "Designing Bitmapped
Images."
2. If you are using RAM, place a graphic field in the format file to
reference the graphic. See the following section, "Defining
the Graphic Field," for more information.
If you are using temporary storage, you do
not need a graphic field in your format to
reference the graphic image.
3. Download all the necessary packets (check digit, format, etc.).
4. Send the graphic file to the printer, if you have not already
done so. See "Creating a Graphic Packet," for more
information.
Defining the Graphic Field
The graphic field in a format references the graphic image by the
graphID in the graphic header.
This field is required only if the graphic
will be stored in RAM.
