grama Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 Avery has a free download for doing labels and etc. That is what I use and works fine. Design Pro http://http://www.avery.com/us/Main?action=software.AverySoftwareDetail&catalogcode=WEB01&softwarecode=3200If that don't work try thishttp://www.avery.com/us/Main?action=software.AverySoftwareDetail&catalogcode=WEB01&softwarecode=3285 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MissMary Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 Avery here too. Most of the time it works, sometimes you have to tweak it a bit, but it's very user friendly and BEST OF ALL- FREE!!! (I love free.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meg_10 Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 Here's a tip for printing labels.Before printing on actual labels, print on typing paper and then put it against your label and light or window, see if it lines up. This way you will not waste labels sheets. It took me long time to get everything figured out. I also use Avery Design pro, it's free program and I try to stay with label template that are in Avery program. I stay away from oval, and odd sizes LOLThey can be PITA to do.Hope that helps.Meg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaggieMay Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 I also use Avery Design pro..I use the full sheets and create the size I need..No waste with lining up the labels you have..HTH'sHugs Maggie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scented Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 Mostly I'm using printshop 22, but get the professional version if you're going to go for it ... then I can ask you questions lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melpitt Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 I use MS Publisher.I like it.. As stated before test print first on a sheet of paper. MS has free templates on thier web site for different label sizes but sometimes it takes a little tweaking. What I usually do is design the label in paint shop pro then import to MS Publisher.

Stella1952 Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 Remember that in many programs, the settings are printer dependent, so if you get a new printer, you may have to recalibrate your settings...Knowing this beforehand prevents loss of hair...
