Using Templates and Wizards
This section describes Loftware’s pre-designed label templates used to create production printing labels
in less time and with less potential errors. It provides guidance to users who routinely produce
customized labels for production printing - unique labels with barcode, text, lines, boxes and graphics.
This section also contains information on creating custom templates.
Loftware has many templates to choose from, including a template for the 1724-A label for General
Motors Suppliers, as well as a wizard that creates the complex PDF-417 barcode that accompanies this
label.This section explains how to customize your labels, how to open a template, and how to use some
of Loftware’s Wizards, specifically the GS1 Barcode, the General Motors (GM), the GS1 Code 128, and
the UPN Healthcare Barcode Wizards. The wizards help you to create a custom formula that becomes a
part of the barcode, helping you to comply with labeling standards the world over, as well as saving you
time and effort. Using a template and a wizard together makes production label printing a far easier
task than it has ever been.
The following is the default directory for Templates created during a new installation:
<Program Files Folder>\Loftware Labeling\TEMPLATE\GENERAL.
What is a Template?
A label template is a “master” copy for labels of a certain type. A template can include the boilerplate
fields you want to be displayed in each label of that type. You can select from the templates provided
with Loftware Label Manager or design your own.
Creating a New Label based on a Template
When you select a template from the label template selection dialog of the New Media Wizard, a
thumbnail preview of the label template and a description are shown.
