Default Changing font on labels

Hi,

I want to be able to print a full page of J8160 labels with the same text on
each however I would like to format the font and color rather than the
standard font that prints out.

Is this possible, if so how?

Thanks

Ali

Default Changing font on labels

Click on the "New Document" button. This will give you a page of the
labels. Now you can either change each one manually, or, if you are using
Word 2002 or later, turn on the Mailmerge toolbar by selecting Toolbars from
the View menu and checking that item and then using the first button on that
toolbar, select labels. Click on OK when the Label Options dialog appears,
but click on Cancel when the message advising that all of the text in the
document will be deleted. Now modify the first label on the sheet as you
require and then click on the Propogate Labels button (it looks like the
Internet Explorer Refresh button). This will transfer the formatting to
each of the labels on the sheet. Now using the first button on the
Mailmerge toolbar, change the document back to a normal Word document and
delete the Next Record field from in front of the text of each of the
labels where it appears.

In the Label dialog, select the text in the Address box, right-click
it, choose Font, and set your preference.
