To create a data file for the <Mailing> function the JET3_Mailing-File-Converter
software application is needed. This software application standardizes *.txt
formatted files and converts them into *.ljd formatted data files for the JET3 printer.
You can create the source file either with spread sheet software (1) or a text editor
(2). The file needs a .txt file extension (3). The text file with the data has to be of a
special format. Each line of the file holds one data set (4) and the fields of each data
set (5) are separated by tabs (6).
This source file has to be standardized for JET3 Printer using the JET3_Mailing-File-
Converter software application (7). Firstly you have to open the text file with the
converter software (8). The software provides information about the data structure
of the source file like the number of the records (9), the number of the fields (10)
within a record and the length of each field (11). Pressing the <Standardize> button
(12) will start the converting process. You can finish the software without saving by
pressing the <Close> button (13).You will have to save the converted file on an
USB stick. During the saving procedure the software offers several options for
adjustments (14).
You will need an USB stick with a folder named LJ3 in the root directory (15). If this
folder does not already exist you will have to create one. The standardized *.ljd file
has to be saved in that folder (16).
