You can print each part of the label in a font that you set up. The label dimensions are still based on the default font (courier, 50 x 30), which is uneditable.
After you set up a new label font, you define the parts of the label you want to use that font in the label_contents view. (For more information, see Defining Label Content.) When you print labels in Cataloging or Serials Checkin, a Select Font button on the Print dialog box lets you define font style and point size for the new label font.
Because you can define new fonts, you can define a barcode font (letting you print barcodes). This eliminates the need to purchase a separate barcode printer.
