It would be really useful if the size of variable elements could be manipulated when building label templates, especially when space is at a premium, and the variable elements can take up the majority of the available space!

If you edit the html of the template you could set the font-size in the appropriate “style” attribute. I think?

Come to think of it, can you not just do this in the editor? Set the font size I mean?

Hi Jon, thanks for the suggestions - I had tried both approaches without success, and subsequently spoke to Breww who informed me that altering the size of variables is not currently possible.

You totally can. If this is what you meant. At least according to the template preview you can.

It appears Jon has outsmarted us! Changing the font size in the editor doesn’t seem to affect the variables themselves, but we didn’t think about changing the HTML. Thanks, Jon! I’ll explain it fully below for the benefit of others:

To change the size of variables, you’ll need add a style attribute to the element containing the title and variable. To do this, start by clicking the \<\> button.

 ![Screenshot 2024-01-11 at 09.44.05](https://breww-community.fra1.digitaloceanspaces.com/original/2X/2/20e40b64f1bae0cb4c152c872ead79195d1af3e6.png)

This will take you to the HTML editor. Next, find the name of the variable you want to change the size of. In this example, `taxable_volume`:

![Screenshot 2024-01-11 at 09.40.12](https://breww-community.fra1.digitaloceanspaces.com/original/2X/2/204bfe1f53451320f21a4264706620ef9b1215e2.png)

You’ll want to edit this line to add a style attribute to the p tag:

`<p>Taxable: {{ label.taxable_volume }}</p>`  
Becomes:  
`<p style="font-size: 20pt">Taxable: {{ label.taxable_volume }}</p>`

This means everything between those specific `<p>` and `</p>` tags will have a font size of 20pt.

Then save everything, go back to your list of custom templates and click the test print button. If you’re not so confident with HTML, change and test the text sizes one by one, as it will be easier to find and correct a mistake.

Great stuff, thanks Jon for solving this one and Matt for your step-by-step guide!

But if i want to change the logo size how does that work? I have tried changing the font size and re inserting the label but it just stays teeny tiny. We have just replaced our racking label printer (Zebra ZSB, it was proper rubbish) and i am trying to sort the larger format labels. Any ideas?

Thanks

Hi Martin, Thanks for your comment. It isn’t currently possible to change the size of the logo image used. However, you could choose to insert the logo as a separate image on the label, allowing you to set it to your preferred size. Currently, this would be the only way to handle this; if you’d like the ability to resize the standard logo, it would be great if you could raise this as a feature request with the team: [💡 Posting ideas & feature requests for Breww 💙](https://community.breww.com/t/posting-ideas-feature-requests-for-breww/22) . Cheers!

Hi Ben, can you provide some instructions on how to add a specific image file as the only option i have is to provide a “source” but with no context or instruction. Also can you tell me where the stock label is pulling the logo from within BREWW as i cant see that mentioned anywhere. Thanks

Hi Martin, Thanks for your reply. An image can be added to a label template by selecting the button highlighted below.

 ![Screenshot 2026-10-05 at 10.59.33](https://breww-community.fra1.digitaloceanspaces.com/original/2X/9/99684a38a00cad2406f428e3cf5edb944927f6cd.png)

You can then embed the image you would like to use by entering its URL.

The default logo used on your labels is taken from your invoicing details: [https://breww.com/settings/invoice/invoicing-details/](https://breww.com/settings/invoice/invoicing-details/)

Please let me know if there’s anything else I can help with. Cheers!
