Horizontal Text Justification

Vertical Text

®
BBP 85 Label Printer User's Manual
Use this procedure to set or change how text is horizontally aligned within the
object. This primarily affects text objects with multiple lines; the alignment setting
is either at the left edge, center, or right edge of the object.
Note: Horizontal alignment affects the way the text grows as characters are added.
Left-justified text grows to the right, center-justified text grows both directions and
right-justified text grows to the left.
To set text horizontal justification:
1. In the Editor, select the text object you want to change.
2. If not already displayed, select More Options
Justification controls.
3. Select the desired justification option (left, center, right)
text is immediately displayed and justified to the new setting.
Note: Text objects can all be formatted with different alignments, however the
last text object set becomes the default for any new text objects during the
current editing session. See "Set Text Defaults" on page 2-16 for more details.
Use this procedure to align text vertically as a string of characters.
Once text has been sized to fit vertically, selecting the vertical setting again will
not change the text back to the original size. You will have to manually change the
text size back to its original setting.
To set text vertically:
1. In the Editor, select the text object you want to change.
2. In the Control Panel, select More Options
Vertical controls.
3. Select Vertical
4. To toggle the vertical setting on and off, select Vertical
Notes:
• Line breaks in the text are treated as spaces when the text is formatted
vertically.
• If the vertical object does not fit on the label, the object and text will be
resized so it fits within the printable area of the label (i.e., text is not
truncated).
. The text is immediately displayed vertically on the label.
