Control Output To File
We output to file using alias values in the label fields. We then run an allication which swaps out the alias values and replaces them with the database values we actually want to print. The issue is when I open label designs previously use to create the template files, the output (which previously was in simple text form) has now been outputted into a DGR....GRF format.
How do I make it so every time I output to a file, I don't end up with the graphics output but get the normal field values:
I want this style:
^XA
^SZ2^JMA
^MCY^PMN
^PW823

^JZY
^LH0,0^LRN
^XZ

Hi Kent,
(is that Zebra printer?)
Use Printer driver provided by Seagull.
Use printer fonts - such as "Zebra Triumvirate" etc, do not use TrueType font or OpenType font.
Note that printer font has Printer icon in front of font name, whereas TrueType font has "TT" icon and OpenType icon has "O" icon.0 -

Mmm.. What you have done would be right. as you probably know, DGR....GRF are graphic command, and if you only use "Zebra Triumvirate", it won't use graphic like truetype.
Open the text object and see the font tab. Would it tells that "Zebra Triumvirate" will be used on printer?0 -
All fields are Zebra Triumvirate. I can't understand how a design outputs correctly yesterday but today it is DGR... format. Can I send you the files? email address? 0 -
