3 Formatting
Formatting refers to the layout, structure, and appearance of a label. Different formatting features can
be found under the Font, Label, and Area functions.
Font
Character/line formats are called attributes that change the appearance of the fonts, such as size,
weight (bold), angle (italics), underline, and expanding or condensing the text.
The two fonts Brady Fixed Width and Brady Alpine give you the option of displaying a zero with or
without a slash (0 or Ø) through it. In addition, hanzi and kanji fonts are also available.
IMPORTANT!
Note: Fonts cannot be downloaded to the printer.
Size
Font size applies to an entire line of data at a time and is measured in point size or millimeters, as
determined in the Setup function.
To change the size of the chosen font:
1. Press Font.
A pop-up menu displays the available font sizes for the label supply installed.
2. Navigate through the Size menu to select the desired font size.
Alternatively, you can manually enter a size using the Custom menu. The minimum/maximum
range is shown below the type-in field. If you exceed these values an error will display.
3. Press Enter after selecting or inputting the size.
