)

Text formatting with the 

Area

 function is differ-

ent from creating a new block using the 

New

Block

 function. With the 

Area

 function, text

within a line or group of lines can be selected so
that its text formats can be changed. The
selected text can also be deleted or copied and
pasted in a different place in the text.
The following two labels show how these func-
tions can be used.

The multiple blocks in this label were created
using the 

New Block

 function. The first block of

this text contains a single line, the second con-
tains four lines, and the third, two lines.

This is a single-block, single-line label with dif-
ferent parts of the text formatted using the 

Area

function. After all of the text was typed in, sec-
tion “(123) 456-7890” was selected and given a
smaller character size.

NOTE
