<p class="Help-Text">Using Print Designer, you can customize your printed documents, labels, packing slips, and tags. The following actions are available to you in Print Designer:</p>
<ul>
<li class="p-Help-Nested-List" style="margin-left: -20px;">
<p class="Help-Nested-List">Add, remove, size, and position data fields, static text, bar codes, and logos</p>
</li>

<p class="Help-Nested-List">Change the printed labels on fields</p>
</li>
<li class="p-Help-Nested-List" style="margin-left: -20px;">
<p class="Help-Nested-List">Change the fonts used for printing</p>
</li>
<li class="p-Help-Nested-List" style="margin-left: -20px;">
<p class="Help-Nested-List">Control certain printing characteristics, such as the behavior of headers and footers</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p class="Help-Text">Note that not all options are available on every template.</p>
<p class="Help-Text">Point of Sale comes with default templates for each document, tag, and label type. You can directly edit the default templates or copy them and then modify the copy to create and save new templates. Once modified, templates can be exported and imported to share them with other workstations or stores.</p>
<p class="Help-Text">Print Designer is not a "WYSIWYG" ("what you see is what you get") editor. As you position data fields on a design page, keep in mind that you are defining relative position, not absolute position, especially as it relates to vertical positioning. Every field that is placed on a template is not necessarily filled with data with each transaction. Many unused fields are removed from the template at the time of printing, so that the printed document does not have blank, wasted spaces. A good example of this behavior is the payment type fields included on sales receipt templates. While all of the possible payment types are included in the design, most sales only utilize one payment type, thus it is the only one actually printed.</p>
<p class="Help-Text">Most document templates are separated into sections. There can be up to five different sections on a template, each with a unique printing behavior. These sections control how the printed output looks. For example, the information included in the Repeating Header section prints at the top of each page of a multi-page document, while the information in the Body Header section prints only once, near the top of the first page. <a href="printdesigner_sections.htm">Learn more about template sections and spacing</a>.</p>

<p class="Help-Bulleted">In the case of a <a href="printdesigner_logo.htm">logo</a>, you can change the vertical sizing.

<p class="Help-Text">Most document design templates are divided into logical sections, each with a unique printing behavior. The number of sections and the specific fields located in each section vary depending on the document type. For example, price tag, label, and 40-column templates will not include all of the section types listed below. The following descriptions will provide a general understanding of how the template sections are used and how these sections behave. Template sections cannot be re-positioned, though they typically can be vertically resized to add or remove white space in a design.</p>
<p class="Help-Text">The five section types are as follows:</p>
<p class="Help-Text"><font class="hcp1">Repeating Header</font> The <a href="../qbpos_glossary_of_terms/glossarypage.htm#glossary_element">elements</a> included in this section are printed at the top of each page of the document. This section typically includes such things as the document date, print date, page number, document/transaction number and the logged-in users name.</p>
<p class="Help-Text"><font class="hcp1">Body Header</font> The elements included in this section are printed only on the first page of a document. This section typically includes such things as store name and address information, as well as billing and shipping address information.</p>
<p class="Help-Text"><font class="hcp1">Body</font> This section typically contain the actual content of the document. For example, on most transactional documents this would be the list of the items processed and the descriptions and/or attributes of those items. When printing a document, the body section expands to accommodate the number of items listed and can span multiple pages.</p>
<p class="Help-Text"><font class="hcp1">Body Footer</font> The elements included in this section are printed only at the end of the document, or on the last page of a multi-page document. This section typically includes such things as totals, balances, savings, payment type, messages and comments.</p>
<p class="Help-Text"><font class="hcp1">Repeating Footer</font> The elements included in this section are printed at the bottom of each page. The same type of information can be placed in this section as in the Repeating Header section, depending on whether you wish this information to be displayed at the top or bottom of each page.</p>
<p class="Help-Text">Click on a section name on the left side of the template to make it active. In the example shown, the Body section is active.</p>
<p class="Help-Text"><img src="../image/sections.gif" alt="image\sections.gif" title="image\sections.gif" width="380" height="287" border="0"></p>
<p class="Help-Text" style="margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0;">&#160;</p>
<p class="Help-Heading-2">Template Spacing</p>
<p class="Help-Text">The Print Designer allows you to add or remove "white space" at the top and bottom of each section by dragging and dropping the section dividers. This is useful for gaining additional space to add design elements or to remove space that would otherwise waste paper when printing.</p>
<p class="Help-Text">The Print Designer template display is not always an accurate representation of how the printed document will appear. Templates typically contain many fields that may or may not be populated with data from a particular Point of Sale transaction. For example: if your sales receipt template includes customer address fields, but you do not always record the customer on the receipt when a sale is made, then those fields and the vertical space they normally occupy will be omitted from the printed document and everything below the address fields will be moved up.</p>
<p class="Help-Text">Use the vertical ruler as a general guide for relative positioning of elements. The actual height of sections and their contents will vary depending upon what data is actually available to be printed. It is recommended that you test your modified templates before implementing them for general use.</p>
<p class="Help-Text" style="margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0;">&#160;</p>
<p class="Help-Heading-2">The End of the Document or Section</p>
<p class="Help-Text">Sections in the template and particularly at the end of the document will vary depending upon the particular type of document and the printer being used. It is recommended that you build each section from the top down and then set the placement for the end of each section and the end of the document according to the lowest field placed in that section.</p>
<p class="Help-Text">The image to the right shows the divider at the end of the document moved to just below the end of the last field. This ensures that no wasted space is added to the printed documents. If more space is needed, the divider can be moved down.</p>
<p class="Help-Text"><img src="../image/printdesigner_divider.gif" alt="image\printdesigner_divider.gif" title="image\printdesigner_divider.gif" width="241" height="310" border="0"></p>
<p class="Help-Text">&#160;</p>
<p class="Help-Heading-2">Moving Elements between Sections</p>
<p class="Help-Text">You cannot move an element directly from one template section to another. If you need to move an element to another section, first <a href="printdesigner_deleteelements.htm">remove</a> it from one section and then add it to the other.</p>

<p class="Help-Text">Print Designer provides three bar code fields for you to use on tag templates: <span class="hcp1">Item #</span>, <span class="hcp1">UPC</span>, and <span class="hcp1">Lookup</span> (alternate lookup field in inventory).</p>
<p class="Help-Text">The default tag templates use the <span class="hcp1">Item #</span> bar code field. Using the item number for bar codes has several advantages:</p>

<ul style="list-style: disc;">
<li class="p-Help-Bulleted" style="margin-left: -20px;">
<p class="Help-Bulleted">You can print bar-coded tags for any item in inventory, even if you do not have a vendor-provided UPC code.</p>
</li>
<li class="p-Help-Bulleted" style="margin-left: -20px;">
<p class="Help-Bulleted">Item number bar codes are typically smaller than bar codes created from UPC or alternate lookup values, meaning they fit better on smaller tag sizes.</p>
</li>
<li class="p-Help-Bulleted" style="margin-left: -20px;">
<p class="Help-Bulleted">If a tag bar code is unscannable due to damage, it is quicker to manually enter an item number (also printed on the tags) than the longer UPC or alternate lookup.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p class="Help-Text">If preferred, you can change the bar code field on tags printed in Point of Sale to use the UPC or Lookup values instead. If you do so, also change the alphanumeric field under the bar code to match your choice, i.e. if printing a UPC bar code, change the <font class="hcp2">Item #</font> field under the bar code to the <font class="hcp2">UPC</font> field.</p>
<p class="Help-Text">If you resize a bar code field after adding it to your template, especially if making it smaller, be sure to test a printed tag to be sure your scanner will accurately read it.</p>
