Text Frames

Text frames are rectangles that can be filled with any kind of text, tables or other data objects that TX Text Control .NET for Windows Forms supports. Text frames may be edited just like any other text in a document.

Label Printing

Using TX Text Control .NET for Windows Forms's precise text frame positioning, end users can simply create and populate a page of labels automatically. The content of the label may consist of fully formatted text, complete with images, bar codes and logos. The resulting document can be printed to standardized printer labels and / or badges.

Mail Merge

Similarly, mail merge applications can benefit from TX Text Control .NET for Windows Forms's text frames. Marked text fields in a text frame can be accessed independently from other fields in the current document. This enables end users to merge all fields in a specific text frame without having to iterate through all fields in the document.

All text frame settings can be accessed directly from program code or via TX Text Control .NET for Windows Forms's integrated dialog boxes. The behavior of text frames can be changed after inserting them into the current document. Their position, style, alignment, size or background color may be adjusted using the dialog box. This is illustrated in the animated screenshot.
