Customizing Labels

Dot fonts

Characters printed in dot fonts are displayed as a series of dots.Dot fonts are a predetermined size and

cannot be resized.Many printers have the ability to magnify dot fonts.

In Loftware Label Manager, Dot fonts usually have names which indicate their size, such as “7 x 9” or

“16 x 22.” Dot fonts have Font Height, Magnify Height and Magnify Width properties.When you select

a dot font, you can magnify the height and the width independently of the font using the Magnify

Height and Magnify Width properties in the Properties box or by resizing the text field with the mouse.

As you change the size of the font, Loftware Label Manager updates the Font Height property to display

the height of the font. If you change the Font Height property, Loftware Label Manager automatically

changes both the height and the width of the characters to provide a normal aspect ratio.

If you want to create tall-skinny characters in a dot font, adjust the Magnify Height and Magnify Width

properties.If you want to make the text larger, but preserve its proportion, use the Font Height property.

Note: When magnified, dot fonts print with ragged edges.

TrueType Fonts

TrueType fonts are scaleable printer fonts and standard Windows fonts.You can increase or decrease the

size of the characters by selecting the size of the font (Points). You can also change the height and width

independently.

In Loftware Label Manager, TrueType fonts can be resized using Points or Char. Height and Char.

Width properties. These fonts always print with smooth edges, regardless of the degree of magnification.

fonts. Like point fonts, hybrid fonts are available in a predetermined set of point sizes. Like dot fonts,

each point size can also be magnified.
