Address, Postcode and Bank solutions
This Tab (shortcut [Alt]+4) is used to display the selected address record in the form of an address label - ready to print with a barcode if you wish. You may even customise or add details to the label before printing and can drag the address and/or barcode to other Windows programs from this Tab.
Examples of label layouts are provided - use the drop-down combo box to choose a suitable format. You may adjust these, then use the Save button to store your changes - or add your own.
To create a new label layout, simply type a new name in the combo box, and then click the Save button. Tuning the label print to your own printer and labels or envelopes may require a bit of trial-and-error.
You may need to adjust the Bar Weight to suit your own printer. Typically, a 600 DPI laser will require a Bar Weight of 9, whilst the Smart Label printer requires a bar weight of 3.
Note that this Tab is designed for printing individual labels or envelopes - to print labels for larger selections of addresses - see the section on Printing Mailing Labels.
The Label Tab is also used to provide a quick way of dragging addresses
and barcodes to other Windows programs - like Microsoft Word.
To drag a barcode or address, simply hold down a [Shift] key, then click
and hold down the LEFT mouse button on either the barcode or the address
box of the label tab. A 'dragging' mouse cursor will appear. Keep the mouse
button down whilst dragging onto the target program (like Word), then release
the mouse button to drop a copy of the barcode or address into that program.
Please note: The barcode is a graphics
image - and you should ensure that your target program is able to receive
and use graphical data, before dragging it there. The Royal Mail barcode
is subject to a fairly strict specification of size and layout, but has
been tested with Microsoft Word and a suitable printer. You should
ensure that your target program and printer is set up to print the barcode
to this specification.
