Labels do not align when printing
Hi
I am attempting to print addresses on a set of labels using mail merge document. The labels should appear as 2 columns containing 7 rows for each A4 page (One of the default templates when you go through the mail merge wizard). Whe I print the mail merge I find that by the 3rd row the labels on the paper no longer align correctly with the so an address appears betweeen 2 labels. Looking at the online help I suspect that this is a printer driver problem with my printer. I have tried updating to the latest driver but this made no difference. Does anyone have any other suggestions? Thanks |

Some label types are definitely problematic in some versions of Word (if you
look for Avery Labels at support.microsoft.com you may find out more info. about that. Otherwise, try unchecking Word Tools|options|Print|"Allow A4/Letter paper resizing. If that helps, please let us know. If not, you may have to modify your label layout - you can define a custom layout in the "Label Options" dialog box by clicking "New Label" (make sure you have a ruler and pencil to hand!)

And some printers simply handle label stock badly. How does it print on
plain paper? -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Peter Jamieson wrote: Some label types are definitely problematic in some versions of Word (if you look for Avery Labels at support.microsoft.com you may find out more info. about that.
