Importing Data into a File Based on a Template

Keep the following in mind when importing data into a label file based on a template:
•
Data only imports into unlocked text or barcode fields.
•
In LabelMark, imported data fills unlocked text fields in labels from top-to-bottom.
•
In LabelMark Plus, the Use existing objects option allows you to map the data to specific template
fields. See Importing Data into LabelMark Plus (Advanced).
•
To import barcodes into LabelMark Plus, see Inserting Barcodes.
•
If imported data does not fit, LabelMark displays a message and changes the font color to red. See
Making Data Fit on a Label for suggestions on making the data fit.
•
Refer to Importing Data into Label Files (Advanced) for details on importing data.
•
Deleting or editing a template does not affect files that were based on it.
