Refer to BBP35 / BBP37 / BBP85 / S3100 - How to add Blackout Diamonds to GHS Labels Standalone for more information.
Note: The GHS app will block out unused diamonds because the GHS diamonds cannot be left blank per OSHA regulations, review the OSHA website for more information. For example, if your label part has four pictogram diamonds but you need to print a label for a chemical that has only two pictograms, the software fills-in with a solid color the empty diamonds so anyone viewing the labels knows that no pictograms are missing.
- Once all criteria has been entered, select Finish.
