Adding a date field to a label template is easy in any labelling software. Adding a date field with an offset couldn't be easier in the Brother P-Touch Editor labelling software. 1. Open the "Date and Time" dialog from the panel on the right. 2. Choose "Date" or "Time". 3. Click the "Add/Subtract" checkbox. 4. Select the "Unit" (hours/days etc.). 5. Changed the "Time Period". 6. Click "OK".
