Abstract: An editing device is configured to edit print data including first print data and second print data via a display device for creating a composite label with a printing device. The composite label includes a first label and a second label and is created by superposing the second label over the first label. A set of program instructions, when executed by a controller of the editing device, causes the editing device to perform displaying an editing screen on the display device. The editing screen has a first region, a second region, and a composite region. The displaying displays a first label image based on the first print data in the first region, a second label image based on the second print data in the second region, and a composite label image formed by superposing the second label image over the first label image in the composite region.

Abstract: The printed circuit board includes, a first conductive layer including copper foil, an insulating base layer, and a second conductive layer including copper foil in this order, and includes a via-hole laminate that is stacked on an inner circumference and a bottom of a connection hole extending through the first conductive layer and the base layer in a thickness direction. The via-hole laminate has an electroless copper plating layer stacked on the connection hole and an electrolytic copper plating layer stacked on the electroless copper plating layer. The copper foil has copper crystal grains oriented in a (100) plane orientation, and an average crystal grain size of copper of 10 ?m or more. The electroless copper plating layer includes palladium and tin, and an amount of the palladium stacked per unit area of a surface of the copper foil is 0.18 ?g/cm2 or more and 0.40 ?g/cm2 or less.

Abstract: A cutting device, having a supporting base, a cutter section, a protrusive part, is provided. The supporting base has a first area, in which a tape is placeable, and a second area on a surface thereof. The surface is formed of a resin coating layer in the first area alone between the first area and the second area.
