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.

Note: 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.
