Prefixing 000 To A Number
Sorry if this is confusing to anyone. I'm trying my best to explain the problem I keep running into so bear with me on this.
My work needs 500 magnets to be printed out and each magnet needs its own number showing where it was printed in order. The trouble that I'm running into is prefixing a 000 at the beginning of each number and having the 0's change out when the numbers get into the double and triple digits. It works out fine in the single digits but once it goes into double and triple digits the 000 stays the same. What I need it too look like would be this: 010, but this is what I'm getting: 00010.
How do I set it to get rid of the extra zeros when the magnet in the printing order reaches double or triple digits?

if you're using serialization, you just need to check the 'preserve data source length' box. It will automatically change the data sizing to match whatever your starting number is at.

Thank you for the response. I had neglected to mention that I'm trying to do this to a text object and not to the QR code itself.

I'm closing this topic because we're re-thinking things.
