Defining or modifying Bar Code Label Layout

Before you can print labels, you must set up the label layouts. The layout determines how the labels are printed on the sheet. Within the layout you set margins, column, the number of labels printing per sheet, and the page orientation. You can establish one or many layouts to be assigned to label types (master, detail, etc.) in the template definitions.
