Text Attribute Substitution
The Text Attribute Substitution feature lets you select attributes that your application currently uses and has your printer
change or re-map them to a different set of attributes, most likely including color. For example, if your application uses
underlined text to indicate a sale item, you can instruct the printer to print all underlined text as red and bold for an extra
visual punch!
Before: Save $2.00 on your next purchase

Using the Text Attribute Substitution Tool
As with every other ReceiptWare tool, we recommend having a sample receipt present with you when creating
Receipt Formats.
1. Open the ReceiptWare software application.
2. Click on Text Attribute Switching tab.
3. Identify the text attributes (i.e., bold, italics, etc.) on your receipt that you wish to change.
4. Check the boxes next to these attributes in the first From section located at the top of the screen. You may choose a
variety of text attribute combinations (i.e., choose underline and italics). A sample of your choice(s) is displayed on the
right-hand side of the screen.
5. Select the text attributes that you would like the printer to use instead of the set that you have chosen in step 4. Check
the boxes next to the chosen attributes in the first To section located at the top of the screen. Once selected, you will
see a sample of your choice(s) displayed on the right-hand side of the screen.
6. Repeat steps 3, 4, and 5 if you have a second set of text attributes that you want altered.
Text Attribute Substitution Guidelines
• If Color Reverse is selected, and Color is not selected, the result is black text
on a color background.
• If Color Reverse is selected, and Color is selected, the result is color text on a
black background.
• Color Reverse and Reverse Video cannot both be selected.
• If Reverse Video is selected, and Color is not selected, the result is white text
on a black background.
• If Reverse Video is selected, and Color is selected, the result is white text on a
color background.
• Choosing the Double Wide attribute may cause some text to wrap, depending
upon the position of the text that is to be re-mapped.
