Re: [IUG] Font size in print templates

["Jackson, Richard" <rjackson at huntington dot org>]

Gerri,

Thank you very much for this; it worked beautifully!  I actually did a slight variation on your suggestion and changed both the font and the size:

<style fontName='Arial Narrow' size='10'> ... </style>

Steve, thank you for your suggestion also.  I was starting to think along the lines of having a separate textfield for the pre-stamp, but wasn't sure how to avoid leaving a blank space when no pre-stamp is used.  If I get a chance to experiment with this and come up with something that works, I'll let you know.

Richard

Hi Richard:



I've gotten this to work.  Here's the code I'm using to do this:




   
($F{itemFix79}.equals ("ohama")    ?"<style size='12'>" +
$F{callEntire} + "</style>" : 

      $F{itemFix79}.equals
("ohcma")    ?"<style size='12'>" + $F{callEntire} +
"</style>" :

      $F{itemFix79}.equals ("ohal
")    ?"LP\n" + $F{callEntire} :

      $F{itemFix79}.equals
("ohcer")    ?"ER "+ $F{callEntire} :

      $F{itemFix79}.equals
("ohcpb")     ?"E "+ $F{callEntire} :

      $F{itemFix79}.equals
("ohcpk")    ?"E "+ $F{callEntire}:

      $F{itemFix79}.matches
("ohc..") ?"J "+ $F{callEntire}: 

      $F{itemFix79}.matches
("ohy..") ?"YA "+ $F{callEntire}: 

      $F{callEntire}) +

      (!$F{itemv}.equals("")?
"\n" +

      "<style size='12'>" +
  

      $F{itemv}+ 

      "</style>":"")


You'll see that if the location code
equals ohama or ohcma, then the call number is printed in 12 point
font.  The default font is 18 point.  If the location code doesn't
match one of these two fonts, then the default 18 point font is used.  



Also, if there's a volume entry, then that also prints in the smaller
12 point font.

I'm wondering if it is possible to change the font or the text size in the middle of an expression in a print template.  We are printing single spine labels on a Zebra printer.  I've set up the template so that certain location codes trigger the insertion of pre-stamps above the call number.  A couple of these pre-stamps contain a word that doesn't fit on the label, so that its last character wraps to a new line.  The solutions I've come up with so far are:
