You would like to print labels with variable pictures. You created a label template connected to your database. The database also includes file names of pictures.
First, connect your label template to your database.
Solution 1
Your database contains complete paths to your picture files, for example, c:\My Pictures\Some Folder\picture01.jpg
-
In NiceLabel Designer Pro/PowerForms click the small arrow on the left side of the Picture icon.
-
The options window opens. Click the database field with your picture file paths.
-
Put your variable picture on our label by clicking on the label template.
-
If needed, edit the picture properties, like Graphic Resizing options or Relative Position. Click the picture, then click the Properties icon.
You can now print your label template with variable pictures.
Solution 2
Your database contains only file names, for example, picture01.jpg or picture01
-
In NiceLabel Designer Pro/PowerForms create a new Concatenate function.
-
Your Concatenate function will consist of fixed text with a file path, database value (file name), and file extension if needed.
-
Click Add fixed text and enter your pictures file path, then click OK.
-
Click Add data source, then click your picture file names database field.
-
If your file names have no extension, add the file extension by adding another fixed text, then click OK.
-
-
Click OK to finish the Concatenate function.
-
Click the small arrow on the left side of the Picture icon. The options window opens. Click the Concatenate function.
-
Put your variable picture on our label by clicking on the label template.
-
If needed, edit the picture properties, like Graphic Resizing options or Relative Position. Click the picture, then click the Properties icon.
You can now print your label template with variable pictures.
