POWISPRINTERÔ MODEL 31 USER’S MANUAL
2. Adding a Zone
To add a zone, go to the Insert menu, select Insert Zone, then
choose Left or Right. This inserts a new zone to the right or left of
the active zone.
3. Clearing a Zone
Clearing a zone deletes all the text or the image in a zone. To clear
the contents of a zone, insert the cursor in the zone you want to
clear. Now go to the Edit menu, and select Clear Zone Contents.
4. Removing a Zone
Removing a zone deletes the zone itself. To remove a zone, first
insert your cursor in the zone you want to delete. Clear its contents,
if it has any (you cannot remove a zone that contains text or an
image). After clearing the zone, go to the Edit menu and select
Remove Zone.
5. Resizing Zones
a. Resizing One Zone
You may resize a single zone by placing your cursor at the zone
bar’s edge. Your arrow becomes a double-ended, horizontal
arrow. In this mode, click and hold the mouse button and slide
the zone bar’s boundary to its new location.
b. Resizing Two Zones
To resize two zones simultaneously, place your cursor in the gap
between two zone bars. Your arrow becomes a little hand.
Click the mouse button and hold it down, while sliding to the
left or the right. This resizes the two zones simultaneously,
maintaining the gap between them.
REMINDER: the Binderstrip™ has fixed one-inch right-and-left margins.
You cannot edit these margins, nor can zones extend into them.
6. How Styles Work in a Zone
The style choices you make affect the entire contents of the active
zone. For example, if you enter text, then press the “Bold” style
button, all text in the zone becomes bold. Or if you’re in a zone, and
press the Landscape orientation, everything in the zone orients in
Landscape. You have many formatting options, but you can use only
one of each per zone—i.e., each zone may contain only one font, at
one point size, in one style, in one orientation, at one alignment
setting.
So while you can’t have a single zone read “
Stubborn burros”, you
can use two zones to create a similar effect. You can also type text
in different styles in any drawing program, save it as a monochromatic
bitmap image, and then insert it on your strip (for more details, see
“How to Make a Strip Like This,” page 46).
