Avery Labels in Publisher

[Mike]

Yes! They are A4 sheets, 6 labels per sheet for
UK/European page sizes, not Legal or US size.

» equivalent to Avery L7166T, J8166T

So if Publisher has these, I can use them instead? I don't
think it has L7166T - I'm sure I'd have noticed. You have
the dimensions correct, so is there anything further you
can do about a template or Wizard?

It's an odd thing - I sometimes find this in Access and
Word as well - they might have (eg) L7165 and L7167, but
not L7166 and I have to scream WHY NOT!?

I cobbled something together with a Word table in the end,
but it would look much better in Publisher as I can't get
the margins right in Word.

Many Thanks

To print anything in Publisher you do not a wizard or template. Especially
labels. There are several ways of creating labels. I'll list a couple below.
1.- Create an individual text frame the same size as a single label.
Position it so it corresponds to the label location on the sheet. Copy,
paste and position as many more frames as you want to print.
2.- Create a simple table with the same number of rows and columns as the
label sheet. Make the dimensions of the table the same as the label area of
the sheet. Center the table on the sheet.

There are other ways, but these two are about as simple and basic as
anything can be. Note that both of them offer the flexibility of printing a
single or multiple label and from any spot you choose which would be the
case when you only want to print a few labels or reuse a previously printed
sheet.
