4.6 Label Format Fields

The Label Format Fields are used to define the characteristics, placement and
representation of the corresponding text data of the individual fields. A format field is
broken down into many different parameters. It is not necessary to enter values for all of the
parameters (default value will be used if a parameter is left blank) but each parameter must
be separated with the comma delimiter (","). A carriage return must follow each format field
for proper operation to occur. The values entered must be positive integers for all of the
parameters of the format field.
