Data Alignment in Label Software


Hi, we are interested in purchasing your barcode label software and I was wanting to know if you are able to center justify the merged data in your software. On creating the design layout with the demo software and trialing it, any linked data, whether barcode number or text, is only generated from left to right hence changing the layout to off-center unless it is exactly the same information as that in the original layout. We have gone to the alignment menu and tried all combinations (in both your software and the Excel spreadsheet we have linked) - still to no avail.

Although nice and simple to use, this would not suit our purpose as we need the information that we merge to be centered in the position we have allocated for it on the label. Is this possible?

Awaiting your advice. Thanks and Regards Michael.

Note: To see images properly, it might be necessary to view them in a separate browser tab or download the image.

Per your description of the issue, I have replicated the issue (using Code 128 as an example, but the same applies to other barcode types). Please perform the following:

Anchor the barcode:

Align the vertical center using the guide (the examples are zoomed-in for clarity):

On the next item (similar length), the center is maintained:

On the next item (length1 + length2), center is maintained:

As seen, the center is maintained.
