4.1.3 Text Layout settings

Character styles specified in P-touch Editor all become the same style within an object.

If the “Long Text” setting is selected under “Text Layout” in P-touch Editor, the vertical alignment setting is

normally set for top alignment.

If continuous length tape is used, the print length is increased to fit the text depending on the setting.

(Refer to “

5.1 Relationship between the P-touch Editor settings and the printer image

” on page 21 for

details.)

If the “Fixed Frame Size (Wrap)” setting is selected under “Text Layout” in P-touch Editor, the object size

does not change, and the text size is reduced.

“Fixed Frame Size (Wrap)” is a setting that was added for inserting long text. Since it is possible that the

text size may become extremely small if the wrapping feature is no longer applied, we recommend that

“Fixed Frame Size” be selected when die-cut labels or a fixed length is specified in P-touch Editor, or that

“Automatic Length” be selected when an automatic media length is specified.
