Resizing Objects

You can resize an object to the size of another object on your label. The objects are resized
based on the size of the first selected object. For example, if you have a Text object, a line
object, and an Image object and you want to resize the Text and line objects to be the same
size as the Image object, select the Image object first, followed by the other two objects.

You can edit the text in an Address or Text object at any time. However, you must
have the Insert tab selected to make any other modifications to an object.

1. Select the objects that you want to resize.

2. Choose Resize Objects from the Layout menu.

3. Select the width and height options that you want to apply.
