How do I center text vertically on labels in Word 2007?
I have checked the "Help" in Word 2007 regarding this and it refers to
settings within the "Table" menu. I cannot find the information related to table settings either. Has anyone have any answers? |

How do I center text vertically on labels in Word 2007?
With the selection in a label, the Table Tools tab of the Ribbon will be
activated and if you select the Layout tab, it has an Alignment section. Alternatively, if you right click when the cursor is in a cell, you will have a Cell Alignment item on the short cut menu that appears. -- Hope this helps.

Labels are actually table cells. Select the table. Right click in the table.
Choose Table properties. Choose the Cell tab. Vertical alighment, Center. "Patrick" wrote: I have checked the "Help" in Word 2007 regarding this and it refers to settings within the "Table" menu. I cannot find the information related to table settings either. Has anyone have any answers? |

How do I center text vertically on labels in Word 2007?
Thanks for the info Doug but it did not solve the label problem. I can find
all the necessary information for tables but I cannot access it after I pick "labels" under the "mailings tab". In the label help, all information is for envelopes. Here is what I have found after I get the "labels" window. I right click the label and get two picks...one for "font" and one for "paragraph". When I pick "paragraph" I can center the test alignment horizontally but not vertically. There is also another box which states "body text" and displays levels 1 to 9, which I have no idea what that is. I have tried help in search and get no information. I have also checked under "options" and every other pick available to no avail. I use Avery 5260 and 5267 labels and I have downloaded Avery's Wizard 3.1 which is supposed to be designed to work with Word 2007 but it does not have a pick to center vertically either. I had none of this trouble with my Word 2002 and Avery's wizard for that version of Word. All the information was readily available. Do you have any further ideas related to this problem?

How do I center text vertically on labels in Word 2007?
Fellow MVP Graham Mayor has just added this to his website:
http://www.gmayor.com/merge_labels_with_word_2007.htm There are some anomalies relating to label merges with Word 2007 that this page attempts to address. -- Hope this helps.

How do I center text vertically on labels in Word 2007?
Hello Terri,
Thanks for the information but it did not help. I have no problem with tables, only with labels when accessed via the mailings tab and then pick labels. Right clicking the label gives you two picks.......font and paragraph. Under paragraph you can center horizontally but not vertically. The other pick is body text, levels 1 to 9 and I have no idea what that is. With the label window on the screen, you cannot access the ribbon. Please try what I am doing and let me know if you come up with an answer to this problem. "Terrie" wrote: Labels are actually table cells. Select the table. Right click in the table.

Enter the text that you want to appear on the label, then click on the New
Document button and then select the labels and right click with the mouse and use the Cell Alignment item in the short cut menu that appears to select the desired alignment. -- Hope this helps.
