Good to know
- Product name, price, MRP, batch and dates on the label here are sample text. The real values are filled in when you print product labels.
- EAN 13 takes numbers only (12 or 13 digits) and UPC A 11 or 12 digits. CODE 128 takes letters, numbers and symbols and works for most products.
- The Barcode Value is only for the preview and for Print this label.
- Two templates cannot have the same name. Built-in templates cannot be renamed or deleted.
- Reset starts a new design. After a save the designer is cleared; open the template from Templates to change it again.
- The zoom buttons above the label only change the view, not the printed size. A right click on a text gives Edit text style, Reset text and Remove Row.
- This page needs the Barcode app and the barcode setup permission.
