How do I set up an image for an Avery form (8163)?
I am trying to use the Avery form no. 8163 to print labels. I have the art
sized and ready, but am having difficulty transferring multiple images to a Print proof sheet. I am doing it 'cut and paste' and somewhat awkwardly. Is anyone familiar with using forms (especially this one...it has 2 columns of 5 labels each) and can tell me the 'trick' to setting up this job? |

I gather that you want a different image on each label, rather than all the
same. In that case, you have three choices: - Copy and paste as you're doing now. - Click in each cell and use Insert Picture From File to select and insert the correct image. - (Recommended) Set up a mail merge and merge the images to labels. The article http://www.gmayor.com/mail_merge_graphics.htm explains how. Also see http://www.gmayor.com/graphics_on_labels.htm for more help. Be aware that the step in that article that has you select the whole table and paste _won't work for 8163 labels_ because there's a narrow center column as a spacer that shouldn't have anything in it. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit.

The macro at the end which uses the propagate function should work with such labels. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org |
