Remarks
This value does not affect the settings
anymore.
• Select the string number from the
preset reference list.
• Applies all strings from the first
string No. to the last string No. to the
specified object.
• Specify the smaller no. to the starting
row no. than the last string No.
• To set only one string, set the same
string No. to the first and last string
No.
• If the string No. without setting is
specified, that string is included in
the marking layout as a blank line.
• With "Justify" setting in straight line,
if the value of character width x digit
number is smaller than the character
string width, the character width is
adjusted narrower automatically.
• When the proportional is set, select
the proportional type in file settings.
