Rotation; Frame - Brady M610 User Manual

Every line of data on the label or in an area is justified according to the option selected. When adding a
new label, the justification maintains the current justification settings until it is changed. Different
justification can be applied to individual labels in a multi-label file or different areas on one label.

Rotation

Rotation flips the data on a label or in an area, counter-clockwise, at 90° increments. Rotation affects
all data on a label or in an area.
Note: If rotation is applied individually to areas, you cannot apply rotation to the entire label.
Data cannot be rotated on a line-by-line basis. When adding a new area or label, the rotation is the
same as the previous area or label.
To rotate data:
1. Navigate to the label or area where rotation will take affect. See
page
2. Open the label or area menu: press LABEL or FN + AREA.
3. Choose Rotate and select the degree of rotation.
If the font size is set to Auto, rotated data is automatically sized to accommodate the new label
orientation. However, if using a fixed font size, the rotated data may not fit on the label. If this occurs,
an error message displays indicating rotated text will not fit. The Rotate function is canceled and data
is not rotated.
Rotation is not reflected on the editing screen, although the degree of rotation is displayed in the upper
left corner of the screen. To view the actual rotation use
Note: The printer automatically sets the rotation based on the installed label supply. If you install a
different label supply the rotation will automatically revert to the default setting for that label
supply type.

Frame

A frame (border) can be added to an area or a label, but not to a line of text. You can have a different
frame, or no frame, on individual labels in a multi-label file. You can also place a frame on a label that
contains area frames.
Note: Frames can only be placed on continuous labels, not pre-sized labels.
To add a frame:
1. Navigate to the label or area where you want to place a frame. See
page
2. Open the label or area menu: press LABEL or FN + AREA.
