Import CSV file

Hanako Suzuki,"Nihonbashi bridge, Ooed", "1-2"
Daichi Suzuki,Tokey-dai Sapporo

Page Setup

The preview displayed on the left side of the window is displayed at a size corresponding to the paper size used for printing. When creating a document, select the Page Setup menu in the File menu and select the paper size that you want to use, or use the Paper Size menu in the window title to determine the paper size.

If you select "Borderless" as the paper size, the print image will be enlarged and printed, so the print position of the text string may not match the preview. Please check the printing position by performing a printing test etc. before using.

A gray frame in the print preview indicates areas that cannot be printed. This area changes depending on the paper size. Adjust the layout so that the text does not overlap the gray area.
