Labels - please help

Can anyone tell me in easy language how to print my Christmas labels?
The label sheet has 14, one each side but no matter how long I spend looking for the correct one etc on the list of labels I can't get the right one or my list of labels appears in one single line

  • Which application are you using? Word? Word can print many of the standard labels and also has an option to set your own label dimensions.
  • Ever get the feeling you are wasting your time? :rolleyes:

    I am using WORD but the choice of size of label does not fit the size of mine which are adhesive ones 14 to a sheet, 3.75cm x 9.5. I have just printed a blank paper sheet and can see that the line up to the label sheet would be above the boxes when i get to say the bottom four. I feel really stupid about this. Have checked using Google but none of the information offered seems to help i.e. mail merge.

    In Word, if you go into the envelopes and labels funtion, select the label tab then click on Options, then New Label, then you can fill in all your measurements as appropriate - it shows you a little diagram to explain what it needs. Assuming all your labels are the same size (and it would be a very odd label sheet if they aren't) you should be able to use this to make a suitable template for any rectangular labels.
