PURPOSE: To reduce the cost of the device and to improve the assembling workability thereof by enabling the output order of dot font data to be switched according to positional relation between the aperture and the cartridge of a camera.

CONSTITUTION: In the print-in device of the camera which executes imprint by allowing light emitting elements 40-48 arranged in a line in a vertical direction to the feeding direction of a film 56 to flicker by synchronizing with the movement of the film 56, an imprinting character is outputted from the dot font data on the head of a composition and the left end of the character in the camera whose housing position of the film cartridge 54 is positioned left with respect to the aperture. On the contrary, the imprinting character is outputted from the dot font data on the end of the composition and the right end of the character in the camera whose housing position of the cartridge 54 is positioned right with respect to the aperture.
