Overlays
Constant text, lines, boxes, and graphics are
overlays.
Constant Text Overlays
A constant text overlay is a set of
fixed characters that prints on all
supplies using that format. The
characters in the overlay are fixed,
and the user cannot change them.
Lines and Boxes
Use lines or boxes to
•
create borders.
•
mark out the regular price on a sale tag.
•
box an item to highlight it.
Graphics
You can print graphics, such as logos or symbols. See your
Graphics Manual.
Field Options
You can apply options to text, non-printable text, and bar code
fields. For example, you can format a field as a price. Chapter
3, "Applying FIeld Options," describes field options in detail.
Here are some examples:
Fixed Characters
Fixed characters print automatically on every supply. You can
specify fixed characters for any text or bar code field.
Overlays do not count
in field numbering from
1 to 30. Field Options
do not apply to overlays.
