Product: LABELVIEW, CODESOFT

Version: All Versions

 

LABELVIEW and CODESOFT doesn't natively allow PDF's to be displayed within a label. This is due to the fact that Windows Operating system's do not recognize PDF's as images. To use PDF's as images, you will need to install the third party program of Ghostscript. The 32 bit version is required to make the change. This can be downloaded from https://www.ghostscript.com/releases/index.html.

1. Download and install Ghostscript from the above link.

 

2. Open the label you would like to add the PDF to.

3. Add the PDF as an image to the label. For more information on adding images to labels, reference this article for adding an image in LABELVIEW/CODESOFT. When selecting the PDF to add to your label, make sure to change the file type from All Image Files to Portable Document Format (*.PDF), shown below.
