Perhaps the first line has a negative left indent?

The same thing happens for the middle column of labels and the right
column
of labels. Those areas are definitely within the printable area. I wish
there was a way to upload a picture of the sheet. It would be so much
easier
to see than me trying to describe it.

It sounds as if the characters that are being truncated are outside the

Yes, exactly the same thing happens. This is so hard to describe.
Picture a
block of three lines of text. The left edge of the first two lines is
moved
two or three characters to the left. But rather than having these two
or
three characters print to the left of the left edge of the label, they
are
simply truncated. Everything that prints is within the label, but the
characters that would be outside the label are simply missing. The
third
line of text is all printed and is exactly where it should be on the
label.
In the labels dialog box the text looks fine. If I right-click on each
line
and click "paragraph", nothing is out of the ordinary.

Is the text aligned correctly if you print the "labels" on plain

I'm trying to print Avery labels in Word 2007. The characters on
each
label
are not being placed properly on the label. The first two lines
have
the
left 2 or 3 characters cut off. The third line is correct.
Overall,
the
block of text is correctly placed on the label. It's as if the
first
two
lines have a different margin, one that is too far to the left.
I've
tried
Avery 8160 labels and Avery 8167 labels (return address size). The
same
thing happens for both, just on a different scale. Any ideas??
