How do I adjust label size in a Word template - images creep up a.

I'm using a label template for Christmas labels. The labels print well in row
one, but begin to creep up and by the 5th row are printing onto the label
above. I know how to adjust the individual label size to be, say .02 taller
per label, in Wordperfect and can find that in Word for new labels, but am
clueless about how to do this in a Word template that's already made. Many
thanks!

My solution has been to use a slightly smaller font size, like 9.5 instead
of 10. Try that before messing with the vertical settings. Also check the
Paragraph menu to be sure there is zero (0) space before and after the lines
of each label.

Thanks for the suggestion, Richard, but it's images not text that move up,
and I want to solve the problem of creeping up, i.e. adjusting the label size
so they print in correct registration for all rows of the sheet of labels. I
could manually go in, I suppose, and resize every image, but that seems
awkward as the label boundaries aren't shown, as well as time-consuming.

OK, I figured it out. Using the FORMAT menu, REVEAL FORMATTING, I could
determine that the template was not really in label form but in a table. I
adjusted the table's row height to 1.01 to eliminate the creep up when the
rows print.

If you display table gridlines (Table | Show Gridlines), you'll find it much
easier working in labels.
