You can display the variable data on the output by right-clicking on the variable in the Project window, selecting “Edit…” and check the “Copy original data to output” checkbox: Placing a Value on the Label for OutputĬreate a new variable by right-clicking on the Variables node in the Project window, and select “Add variable > By position…”: Note that when you create a variable from some portion of the label, that portion disappears from the output. Name the variable “SSCC18BarcodeValue” and click OK to add it. Right-click on the SSCC-18 barcode, and select “Add Variable…”: Let’s create a variable to contain the value encoded by a barcode on the label. And in the Variables window, you can see its value, which comes directly from the ZPL label: Creating a Variable from a Barcode Name the variable “PONumber” and click OK. Right-click on the “PO#: 12244484” and select “Add Variable…”: Now, let’s create a variable from some text on the label. Creating a Variable from Text on the Label You can now see the label contained in the ZPL file shown in the eFORMz Viewer window. Now find the file you downloaded, select it, and click Open. Select “From file” and click “OK” on the “Select” dialog box that appears. Click the “Open Data” button on the Viewer window to open the ZPL file. Then type “ZPLInputSample” in the “File Name” field, and click the Save button to save the file: Double-click the “Sample” directory to open it. Save the project, by clicking the “Save” button. On the Form Properties dialog box, select “4 x 6 Label” from the Page Size dropdown: Then click the “Add Form” button to add a new form to your page.

Click OK on the “Page Properties” dialog box. Select the “Add Page” button to add a page to your new project. Click the “Create New Project” button to create your new project. Run eFORMz Composer, then create a new project, a new page, and a new form within that page. The following simple exercise demonstrates how eFORMz can read in a ZPL file and add, remove, or change elements of the label to create the desired final label. The contents of the label can then be combined with other elements to compose the desired output, and this output can then be sent to any output device or file type supported by eFORMz. When using a ZPL file as input, eFORMz reads in the individual elements on the label and converts them into the eFORMz proprietary device-independent format.

The Zebra Printer Language (ZPL) format is a full-featured printer language for producing labels that contain text, barcodes, lines and boxes, and graphics. Many different types of files can be used as input to eFORMz, including PDF, text, XML, captured print spool files such as those going to a PCL 5 printer, or label files such as ZPL files.
