User-defined character image
If a user-defined character image (a bitmap
character not usually available on the PT-9600)
is assigned to a PF key, that character can be
added to any label that you create on the
PT-9600. The user-defined character image can
be edited like any other character and formatted
using almost all text format functions.
The user-defined character image will have the
size of the bitmap created on the computer. If
the size of the user-defined character image is
smaller than the specified text size setting, space
will be added above and below the character. If
the size of the user-defined character image is
larger than the specified text size setting, the
error message "IMAGE CHARACTER SIZE
ERROR!" will appear.
To transfer a character image to the P-
touch:
1 On the Start menu, point to "Programs",
then "P-touch Editor 3.2", and then click
"Transfer Manager". When Transfer Man-
ager is started up, the following window is
displayed.

NOTE
Before transferring data, make sure that the P-touch
is in Transfer Mode. Refer to Transfer mode on
page 6.
2 From the File List, select the character
image that you wish to transfer.
NOTE
☞
If the desired character image is not listed, click
the Modify Folder button. In the Browse For
Folder dialog box that appears, select the folder
containing the desired character image, and
then click the OK button.
☞
The maximum size of a user-defined character
image that can be transferred is 380
dots. Any part of the image that extends out of
this size will be clipped off. In addition, the
character image should be a monochrome bit-
map, otherwise it will not be assigned correctly.
3 Click the Change PF Key Mapping button,
and then select the PF key where you wish
to assign the character image.
NOTE
Only one character image or template can be
assigned to each PF key. If a character image or
template is already assigned to a PF key, the previ-
ous data is erased when a different character image
or template is transferred.
4 Click the Start button to convert the charac-
ter image to the P-touch image format and
begin transferring it. A dialog box appears,
indicating that the character image is being
transferred.
