How to write a Text Item File
There are two ways to write a text item file. One is by writing a barcode value, and the other is by writing a file path.
To write a barcode value
Barcode item = Barcode value
 Barcode item
Do not write "{}" before and after the barcode item.
Alphanumeric character, "-, " and "_" are available (case-independent). If you input other characters than those, an error
occurs.
 Barcode value
For the barcode value, specify the value that is the base of the barcode to be replaced.
Tab characters are not available for the barcode value. If you use them, an error occurs.
When you want to input a line feed code, specify "\n". If you want to specify "\n" itself, specify "\\n".
To write a file path
Barcode item = FILE(TAB) Barcode file path
 Barcode item
Do not write "{}" before and after the barcode item.
Alphanumeric character, "-, " and "_" are available (case-independent). If you input other characters than those, an error
occurs.
 Barcode file path
For the file path, write a file path of the file in which binary data to be replaced is written.
Text Item File example (print2.dat)
