A constant text field is a set of fixed characters that prints on all
labels. Define each constant text field separately. This field is
not assigned a field number, but is counted as a field (keep this in
mind, as the printer allows a maximum of 1000 fields or 100 for
9403 printer per format). The characters in this field cannot be
changed by batch data. Field options do not apply to constant
text fields. Mark the pivot point of your field. This will vary,
depending on how your field is justified.
