  1. Open up the C:\APMapmconfig_receipt.xml file in Notepad.
  2. Each text string has a name assigned to it and this may be found in the apmlang_XXX.xml template and/or the apmlang_custom.xml if it has been modified.
  3. Look for the section that needs to be modified by doing a search for the name. Example. Pickup Instructions is txtPickupInstructionsTitle.
  4. If there is a different line for the text based on the fulfillment, find the desired fulfillment for the text using fulfillment_id=.
  5. To modify the font, look for the face= setting and enter the desired font.

6. To change the size of the font look for pts= and enter the size.
7. To make the text bold, make sure bold=”true” .
8. To underline the text, make sure underline=”true”.
9. For alignment of the text enter left, right, center in align=.
10. To place one or more hard returns after the line, enter the number of hard returns desired in trailing_lines=.
11. To edit the text itself, use the instructions in the previous section.
