Hi,

I have Bartender ver. 8.01 and I'd like to print 2 templates (English and French) from the same document, same variables, same input values. Can I do with this version ?

  In 10.0 it is possible to create two different templates, one in French and one in English, and then conditionally print one or the other based on some value (shipping address, or a choice on a data entry form).

   

  In 10.1 you can additionally use layers to create alternate versions of only part of the label, and conditionally print those.  In that way, objects like barcodes, lines, and the data fields only exist once, but the text that needs to be translated can be in a different layer which changes based on the desired language.

   

  In older versions it is not impossible but requires VB Scripting to hide and show objects, or change the text.  It is a lot harder to create something like this with 8.0, although people have certainly done it.
