Label AutoLayout. |
Input label AutoLayout. Single label. Columns Matrix. |
Label AutoLayout is a program for the automatic generation for a single label, for columns or for a label matrix consisting of single labels or columns. The text lines created using Label AutoLayout can be supplemented and edited using edit lines.
The lines are initially generated with the font given in Single label or Columns. If several font styles are desired, these must be input/amended later using edit line. before input of the data for a single label or a column the Label limits are to be input first. A single label consists of a specified number of horizontal text lines. The line dimensions, spacing etc. are determined automatically according to the specifications. With each input the label is recalculated and displayed graphically. Columns consist of a specified number of columns with text lines. In addition, one each of a header and footer can be determined over the complete label width. The distribution of the columns takes place according to specifications such as, for example, column width, spacing, number of lines etc. With each input the column is recalculated and displayed graphically. A matrix is a multiple arrangement of single labels or columns, i.e. before the input of data for a matrix, the input of data for a single label or a column is necessary. With each input the matrix is recalculated and displayed graphically. |
