Can anybody help?

I do not understand the meaning / use of 'Label' and 'Target Mark' as shown in the Background Box.

Also can you write simple text onto the background, e.g. SB, Plat.  etc?

Regards,

John M

Hi John,

Yes, that's what a Label Shape is for. Just enter your text in the name box:

label_shapes.pnglabel_shapes.png

You can change the size of the text and the font by clicking the label font... button on the font/colours tab.

A Target Mark shape is used to put an alignment marker on the printout. It looks like the diamond symbol above. You can add these marks at strategic locations on your printed templates to help in aligning them onto the baseboard.

Martin.
