Use

In this Customizing activity, you specify label stock sizes. In doing so, you assign the width and height of the label stock as well as the unit of length to a freely defined description of the label stock size.

The label stock size indicates the size of the stock on which the label is printed.

In the Edit Label Stock transaction, you assign the label stock size to the label stock in the header data.

Activities

Note the type of label when defining the label stock size:

  • Sheet labels: individual sheets of labels that are placed in a printer tray. These are printed with standard laser printers, inkjet printers, and copiers.
    • Width: measured by the lower or upper edge of the label stock
    • Height: measured by the left or right edge of the label stock
  • Roll labels: labels on rolls that are fed into the printer. These are printed using special label printers.
    • Width: width of the roll label
    • Height: length measured from the upper edge of the label to the upper edge of the next label on the roll

Note the following when defining the size of the label stock:

  • The size is specified in terms of portrait format. In this case, the label stock is printed without rotation. The height is the longer side and the width is the shorter side of the label.
  • If the label stock is to be created in landscape format, select the corresponding checkbox in the header data of the label stock in Edit Label Stock. In this case, the width is the longer side and the height is the shorter side of the label.

    This setting is generally used for special label printers.

Example

Label stock size for a label with the format DIN A4:

  • Description for the size of the label stock: 210X297 MM
  • Width of the label stock: 210
  • Height of the label stock: 297
  • Unit of length: MM
