Font Attributes Select any combination of the following font attributes:
Bold, Italic, Underline, Strikeout, Smoothing.
Smoothing font edges results in a less jagged
appearance, but generally should not be used since it
will reduce the sharpness of characters. Pixel effects
are usually not detectable at DPI values of 350 or
more.
Add EM Width for Text
Width Calculation
This setting is a work-around for some TrueType Fonts
(Arial included) that render incorrectly. Some
characters with diacritical marks have a mark that is
left outside of the bounding box of the character (to
the right) and will not be printed.
With this option selected, the bounding box (and
thereby the bitmap used as the rendering area) is
extended to the right by one EM width (the point size
of the character). The EM is used because of its size
regardless of the font size selected.
Text Color The color of the lased text (grayscale only).
Background Color The background color (grayscale only). Setting to a
value lower than 255 will improve text contrast,
especially for small fonts. 245 to 250 are typical values.
Text Width The width of the text entered in the Text field (in mm).
If Text is Wider Options for how the program handles a situation where
the text is wider than the text width field, if specified
(see above).
• Ignore - The error is ignored (text may overlap
other elements or run off the edge of the card).
• Crop Text to Maximum Width - The text is cropped
at the defined width (text characters longer than
specified will not be printed).
• Throw Conversion Error - An error message will
appear and the element will not process.
• Shrink to Fit - The text will be compressed to fit the
text width (only the width will change).
Expand Smaller Text If a text field is configured at a certain size (Text Width
value set > 0) there are several options to use if the text
is wider than the field. This option can be used to scale
smaller (narrower) text to achieve the selected width.
This is done on the bitmap level, so for extreme
expansion ratios you will see a visible aliasing effect
(only the width will change).
