Features

Label Vista can select objects on the screen for editing, dragging, or
format label output.  To select an object, click on it with the left
mouse button.  The object will then be surrounded with a blue
rectangle.  The object may then be dragged with the left mouse button
held down.  It may also be edited by clicking on the right mouse button
while the mouse is inside the blue rectangle.  Multiple items may be
selected by holding down the control key on the keyboard while clicking
on the desired objects with the left mouse button.  If you want to select
multiple items, continue holding the control key as you make your
selections with the mouse.  This will add to the current list of items
selected.

The fonts creation capability enables you to create and edit pre-scaled 
(fixed size) fonts from a library of True Type fonts. These fonts can 
then be down-loaded into the printer as ".cpf" files and used to create 
labels.

Comtec Command Language format files can be made from any label by first
selecting the objects which will be variable in the format.  This is done
by using the multiple object selection method described in the previous
paragraph.  The order in which you click on the objects determines their
order in the format file.  This is important because your printer manual
specifies that the order of variable fields in the format file
determines the order in which variable data must be sent to the printer
when using the format.  To complete the format file procedure, choose
the "Save As Format" command under the File Menu.  Your label will be
saved to disk under the format file name you select.  This operation
has no effect on the label currently displayed, or the label file on
disk which represents the currently displayed label.

Users can implement snap-lines for aligning objects in the label by
using the margins of the label as set in Page Setup.  For example, to
align text with left justification on the 1" position, set the left
margin to 1" and then use the left alignment button on each text object
you want to have lined up on 1".  The same principle can be used for
vertical alignments against the top or bottom page line.  Once the
alignment is complete, you can move the margin to wherever it belongs
for your label boundary.
