Badge Design
269
A badge design can contain the following information:
Cardholder Photo The Cardholder’s photo is stored in the Cardholder record and is automatically accessed
when the Display Badge, Print Badge, or Display Photo selections are made. The photo
can be implemented with several different format selections including Chroma Key, Chroma
Cut, Ghosting, Black and White format, and Rescaling.
Cardholder Signature The Cardholder’s signature is also stored in the cardholder record and is acquired from an
optional signature panel attached to any enrollment workstation within the system.
Note: An optional signature capture pad is required for this feature.
Logos These are bitmaps of any object or scene that can be imported into the system from any
external software package. They can be used as backgrounds or as smaller symbols, and
can be overlaid on top of each other.
Rectangles, Triangles, Circles,
Ellipses You can draw and automatically size rectangles, triangles, circles, and ellipses. You can fill
them with color from the extensive color palette within the system, or you can leave them
without a fill. You can round the corner, mix the width of the external lines, and select the
color.
Lines You can draw lines with varying styles, thickness, and color in any direction.
Fixed (Constant) Text You can enter text onto the badge at any selected location and select the font from the
extensive font list.
Database (Variable) Text You can automatically add text from the Cardholder Database. You can select the location
and orientation, and you can also define the font and whether full or partial rending of the
data shall be used. The fonts size automatically and you can choose the color for the text
from the built-in color palette.
Bar Codes You can print the card number and employee number on the badge as a bar code. You can
select the location, size, and color of the bar code.
Note: During the process of badge design, we recommend that you periodically save the
badge template using the File menu on the Menu Bar at the top of the screen. The
first time a template is saved, you must select a unique name for the template.
The name can be up to eight (8) characters in length. Use the Save As command
the first time.
