Part 5 Character Size, Text Effects and Character Styles This part of the manual explains how to set the size of characters. It also tells you how to assign text effects like underlining, shading, and box printing, and how to select character styles like normal, outline, shadow, and raised. Character Size There are two methods you can use to set the character size: AUTO and MANUAL. With AUTO, character size is set automatically in accordance with the tape size you are using and the number of lines you are printing. MANUAL lets you set the character size manually. The following table shows how AUTO decides which character size to use. Number of lines/tape size tape size number of lines 1 line 6mm 1 × 1 2 lines - 3 lines - 9mm 2 × 2 - - 12mm 3 × 3 1 × 1 - 18mm 3 × 3 1 × 1 1 × 1 The following table shows the 24 characters sizes that are available with MANUAL size setting.

The size of the displayed text does not change. Important! • Any character size specification you make is applied to all the characters on the display. You cannot make multiple specifications for specific characters. • The maximum character size you can print depends on the size of the tape you have loaded in the Label Printer and the number of lines of text you are printing. If the character size you specify is greater than the maximum characters size limit, the Label Printer automatically adjust your text vertically to fit as shown in the tables below. The indicator "E" is shown on the right of the size to indicate when the character size has been adjusted. E-13
