Mapping a Field as Text
In this example, select option 1 to map the customer name as text. When you select
MapasText, the Map Text panel appears, as shown in Figure 48:
In this example, you need to map the customer’s name to print in bold and a
larger font. This is the area that uses the HELEVTICA font, so you need to select
that font. You also need to position the field on the page.
After you press Enter on the Map Text panel, the Define Field Mapping panel is
updated to show that the field has been mapped, as shown in Figure 49:
The field that you just mapped is shown in this panel as a string of 2s. You can use
the F11 key to toggle between showing the mappings and hiding the mappings,
which shows only the data. If you need to change the mapping attributes or
placement, you can position the cursor inside the area shown with 2s and press
Enter, which displays the Edit Text Mapping panel.
