Facts about Fonts

In Loftware Label Manager, hybrid fonts feature Font Height, Point Size, Magnify Height, and Magnify

Width properties. As with dot fonts, use the Magnify Height and Magnify Width properties to

independently size character height and width or use the Font Height property to change the size of the

characters while maintaining the proper aspect ratio.

Note: Most printers have an internal scaleable font that resembles a TrueType san serif font. Use this font

instead of a TrueType font whenever possible. Your labels print much faster this way.

Flexible fonts

Flexible fonts (also called vector fonts or outline fonts) can be scaled to any size and are native to most

printers.These are the best choice for quality and speed. Usually, you can size the character height and

width independently in a flexible font. Use these fonts whenever possible to achieve a balance between

download speed and print quality.

In Loftware Label Manager, flexible fonts have Character Height, Character Width and Point Size

properties.Choosing a point size sets both the height and width to a preset aspect ratio. To create tall-

skinny characters, make appropriate edits to both the Char Height and Char Width properties.When

printed, flexible font characters retain their smooth edges regardless of their size.

To change character size in LLM, edit the Magnify Height and/or Magnify Width properties

independently.

Note: When working with fonts, note the Spacing property.Some fonts are Monospace and some are

Proportional. In Monospace fonts, all characters are the same width. Proportional fonts have a different width

for every character. TrueType fonts are usually proportional. Proportional fonts read better on the printed

label. It is harder to predict envelope size, as it varies with the data.

If you use any of the Justify properties, it is best to use Monospace fonts.
