Change the basic parameters of a TrueType object

You can modify the input text, font and styles as well as the character height and width in the
"Object settings" tab.
• To edit the parameters of the TrueType object, select the object in the object list or in the
marking image editor.
The parameters are displayed in the category below the object list.
Do either of the following to adjust the basic parameters:
• Select "Change" next to "Text" to change the text of a TrueType object.
• For "Font", select a font from the list of installed fonts on your PC.
For characters that are not supported by the selected font, the fallback font that is
specified in the font properties is applied. If there is no fallback font, these characters
cannot be used.
• Select "Bold" or "Italic" to change the font style.
For some fonts, you must select the bold or italic type style, to be able to create a
TrueType object.
• Specify the height and width of a character under "Character height [mm]" and "Character
width [mm]".
These values do not represent the actual character size, because they include the
spacing defined for each TrueType character. To specify the character size accurately,
measure the actual size of a marked character, and adjust the height and width values.
