Default Custom Label with Return Address

Using the label wizard, you would have to change the margins and pitch to
create a false label that approximates to the text space you wish to use on
your labels.
Or
Using 5348 select the first line of text in the label Window and format the
paragraph to add space before. Then select all the text and format the
paragraphs to have a suitable indent.
Or
You can make a template using the method suggested by JoAnn, but you cannot
use that from the label wizard.

Using Word 2003 SP-2. We've had labels printed with our return
address. I'm trying to create a custom label in Word such that the
recipient's address will start approximately 1-1/2" from the top of
the label and then about 1-1/4" from the left margin. The 5384 Name
Badge is the right size, right number of labels on the page, etc. I
don't, however, want the recipient's name and address to be centered
top and bottom, but it to start where I want it to. Does someone
have instructions for this somewhere that I've not found? As always,
thank you.
