jbodinelozier Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 Hi All, I am having trouble setting up a label job Avery 5960 that will have a flooded colored background with knockout type. I have a column that needs to be a really small typesize and different font (for postal breakdowns requested by mailhouse) from the name, address, etc. I setup everything in indesign and exported each text box as a variable text box - formatted the first label the way it needs to be. What I can't seem to get to do is move to the next record, is there an easy way to do that in fusion pro? I don't want to bring everything into indesign and format separately, appreciate any help you could give. Thanks J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Marshall Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 Create a Formatted Text Resource. (FusionPro -> Data Definition -> Input Options -> Edit Resources -> Add, change the type to "Formatted Text".) Click Edit to bring up the Variable Text Editor for the resource. Type in whatever text you want. (For paragraph styles, start on the second line.) Create a Switch Rule to return the desired formatted resource to the text frame as needed.

jbodinelozier Posted October 12, 2012 Author Share Posted October 12, 2012 Hi Alex, I have the type formatted beautifully on one label, but it's going to the next page, not to the label next to it. I have 30 up on a page, please see both attachments. Any suggestions would be appreciated. thanks ~jcsv_Presorted USTEST.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Marshall Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 Janet, You need to start out with a one-up PDF template and use FP Imposer to define the 30-up layout. Is this what you are trying to achieve? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
