Dimensions

There are four basic label dimensions available:

• 4 x 2 Zebra
• 3 x 2 Zebra
• 4 x 2 Dymo
• 3 x 2 Dymo

Choose the largest size that is smaller than your physical label. Otherwise, the labels overflow your physical labels and extras will print.

Work with Labels

Labels are grouped according to the current view. When grouped by Group Role Type, labels sort into Group Participant, Leader, Servant, and RSVP categories. From this view, click the i icon to display Group Mapping information. When grouped by Group Mapping, labels sort into Group categories that show which labels print for which Groups. From this view, click a ticket or person icon to display Group Role Type information.

The system records a history of changes beneath the label preview. If you change the label name or group mappings, the previous values store in the entry. If you change the label design, entries display the username of the person who's logged in and today's date. It doesn't store specific values. History is not included during export.

Format

You can use HTML to further format your labels. Click the HTML Source View button to switch the label editor into HTML editor so you can edit the HTML directly. When finished, click the HTML Source View button again to switch back to the WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) editor view.

Absolute Positioning

You can use absolute positioning for items within a label if the label has a relative position.

If you use absolute position on an item, the position calculates from its container. The body is the default container. This means if you just use an absolute position for a stack of three labels, the labels will have all of the absolutely positioned items in the same place for the stack, not in the same place for the individual labels.

If you style a container element as position:relative, then all child elements position relative to the container element. You can use this in conjunction with position:absolute to control the position absolutely within the container. This is how you should use absolute position for items within a label.

Tips & Tricks

• Remember that the preview is a content preview, not a format preview. Print labels to test formatting. You can Print to PDF or send to a label printer.
• Tables are helpful and we recommend you use them to help you to use all the available space.
• Be exact in your height and width. The printers all use 96 dpi so you can see how many pixels you have to use (one inch is 96 px). We recommended an 8 px buffer for the edges.
• Images must be black and white, small, and in base64.
• If you can't see the full content of your label in the Editor, you may have an image with too much white space or that isn't in base 64.
• Be mindful of wrapping pushing other content to another line. We recommend you use set heights and widths and set overflow to hidden.
• Test, test, test! There are a lot of different scenarios with Check-In Kiosk. Make sure to test them all!
