5-12 Defining Text Fields
Entering a Sample Combo Text Field
To use a combo field, you must already have created the field(s) you want to
copy or use data from.
We will create a sample format COMBO (2.0-inch long by 2.0-inch wide) that
includes a text field (SIZE), and then create a combo text field (COPY) that
copies the data from SIZE.
NOTE: This sample uses the printer’s factory-set defaults. For more
information about your printer’s configuration, see Chapter 3,
“Configuring the Printer.”
