How do I design a label template?

[PegGall]

I need to design a template in Publisher for round labels. I have downloaded
the template from a web site in Word, but would like to use it in Publisher.

 

[Mary Sauer]

What size?
The setup for 2.5 labels are
Side margin .25, top margin .5, Horizontal gap .25, vertical gap zero
This will result in 3 columns and 4 rows
Avery 5294

 

[PegGall]

They will be 3.33 in diameter. The same as Aver 5295.

 

[Mary Sauer]

I am getting these measurements from CorelDraw, they have all the labels

For Avery 5295
Side margin .625
Top margin .5
Horizontal gap .6
Vertical gap zero

I'd print on plain paper first and see if they line up okay. Remember you are
creating something round on a square. Might create a circle 3.33 x 3.33 so you will
know where to put your objects.

Thank you. I love CorelDraw, just can't afford to buy it, very expensive.

This is greatly apprecated.

Hi Mary,
Do you have the setup numbers for Avery #5293? (1 2/3" dia. circles)? Your
post is just the help I need - just a different size.

A few months ago I was surfing and found a site that sells labels and
cross-references Avery numbers. They have templates and also list
dimensions.

This page will give you the information you need. Bear in mind that because
you have round labels, the setup is going to be trickier.

Side Margin >> .44
Top Margin >>> .5
Horizontal Gap >> .38
Vertical Gap >> .04

Since these are round labels, I would create a 1.625 circle so you will keep
your objects in bound. Round labels are tough to print, you have to have great
faith your printer is accurate. These margins maybe a little off, Publisher
doesn't want to use the correct dimensions, which are
Side, 4.38
Top, .5
H, .375
V, .042

It's a handy little site for this kind of stuff.

Thanks, Mary - You're right about the lables being tough to pring; I am
noticing that it's tricky to manually align my labels with the label sheet -
they're a little off. I do appreciate this information. Thanks!
