Principles of Sequential Printing#
1.Sequential printing can be applied to alphanumeric characters.
Upper-case letters follow the order from "A" to "Z", lower-case letters follow the order from "a" to "z", and numbers increase from 0 to 9.
Example:
The Numbering function is used to apply sequential printing to “099”.
If the count under "Numbering" is set to “2”, you will get the following result:
| Sequential printing applied to | First label | Second label |
|---|---|---|
| Last digit「9」 | 099 | 090 |
| Last two digits「99」 | 099 | 000 |
| All「099」 | 099 | 100 |
2.Various patterns can be created depending on the combination of the objects with sequential printing applied, merged objects, and the specified number of copies.
<Numbering object and number of copies>
Example: The layout contains a numbering object with “001”.
In the print dialog box, the numbering count is set to “2”, and the number of copies is set to “3”.
↓
A total of six labels will be printed: three with “001” and three with “002”.
<Numbering object and merged object>
Example 1
The layout contains a numbering object with “001” and a merged object.
A name field with three records - “Yamada”, “Tanaka” and “Nakamura” - is linked with the merged object.
In the print dialog box, the count under "Numbering" is set to “2”, the number of copies is set to “1”, the [Restart from Each Record] checkbox is cleared, and “All Records” is selected as the print range.
↓
A total of six labels will be printed:
“001 Yamada”, “002 Yamada”,
“003 Tanaka”, “004 Tanaka”,
“005 Nakamura”, “006 Nakamura”.
Example 2
The same parameters as in Example 1, except for the [Restart from Each Record] checkbox - it is selected this time.
↓
A total of six labels will be printed:
“001 Yamada”, “002 Yamada”,
“001 Tanaka”, “002 Tanaka”,
“001 Nakamura”, “002 Nakamura”.
You can increase the number of copies to print more copies of the same labels.
