book label?
I don't think it's unreasonable to interpret a label that says "This Book
Belongs To" as being a bookplate. Yes, it's possible that the OP meant to put the label on the outside of the book, but the inside is what I also assumed, and that would be a bookplate. There is in fact a bookplate template at http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/te...CT101467571033. There are also bookplates for schoolbooks at http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/te...T101467571033; I'm guessing that these are intended for use in a single teacher's classroom library. There's one that actually says "THIS BOOK BELONGS TO" (with a flower design) at http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/te...T101467571033; the same design in B&W is at http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/te...CT101467571033 I found these by googling for "bookplate template," which also turns up many more such, including one from Avery. A Google Images search is even more productive. -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA http://word.mvps.org "Greg Maxey" wrote in message ...

Ms. Barnhill,
Who said anyting was unreasonable? Call it whatever you like As is often the case Mr. Daniels was wrong. The OP posted looking for a template and not Mr. Daniels' erroneous statement that one doesn't exist or for what books on typograhpy may have to say about them. He didn't know the answer. Since he didn't and you did, the perhhaps he should have left the question for you. Suzanne S.

book label?
Subcommander mini-max is making up lies and fantasies about me again.
I never said such a template doesn't exist. I implied that there would be no point in such a template, because bookplates are one-off things. I'm not responsible for the fact that subcommander mini-max doesn't know what a bookplate is or is for (and that ducksrusmrducks may not know the usual name for what he's looking for, but it was fully identifiable from his description "This Book Belongs To book label". Moreover, since in my response I supplied the usual name for what he was looking for, if he still wanted such a template he would be able to search for it and, as Suzanne found, find some.) The world would be a much better place if subcommander mini-max would simply never again look at any posting from me (and would stop sending me emails).

I don't think that will help, because bookplates don't change from
book to book.

book label?
That would rather depend on whether the books all belong to the same person,
or whether the labels are for multiple copies of a book for a variety of people (members of a school class?) The question said that the labels were for "This Book Belongs To" and not "This Book Belongs To ducksrusmrducks" Either way labels - merged or otherwise - will work. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Peter T.

You can see from this message how vindictive and stupid subcommander
mini-max really is. He somehow thinks that I said anything about bookplates being used in books on typography. He fails to understand that what is needed for your request is not a template sort of tool, but a labels sort of tool -- as Graham has suggested. He fails to understand that everyone's bookplate is an individual creation, which reflects your own needs and taste, and not someone else's. Perhaps subcommander mini-max's thirty years in the Navy drummed all imagination and creativity out of him and left him with nothing but an ache for the power he no longer has, to regulate the lives of the dozens of men at his mercy.

Mr. Daniels,
I think it is you with the lock on stupid. Do you try to be stupid or does it come naturally? Do you just babble here without any idea what you actually post? He somehow thinks that I said anything about bookplates being used in books on typography. Yes he does. If you didn't post this then someone is posting using your name: "There's no standard design for bookplates. Books on typography often use bookplates to show the imagination of designers!" You are arguing in circles again. First you challenge Graham Mayor's suggestion and now you champion it. If you weren't such a dilattante you might realize that a Word template is still a template regardless if is used as a tool for creating letters, creating labels, or creating bookplates. Continue in your arguments as you wish. You are simply over your head and out of your range. Peter T.
